Exporting Parameter Information

You can write the parameter information in a model to a name/value file or to a full parameter definition file. Once exported, you can edit and import the information into a different model.

  1. From the gateway, select the model for the export.

  2. Select the component whose parameters you want to export, and click the Parameters tab.

  3. Determine the parameters that you want to export:

    • Specific set of parameters

      1. Select the parameters on the Parameters tab.

        You can also export individual array elements by expanding the array in the Parameters tab and selecting the elements that you want to export. If you want to export a parameter group, you cannot click the group itself. You must select each parameter within the group.

      2. Click the button next to Export, and select From selected parameters.

    • All the listed parameters

      Click the button next to Export, and select From all parameters.

    The Export Parameters dialog box appears.

  4. Determine the type of file that you want to create:

    • All parameter information

    • Names/Values only

  5. Click OK.

  6. Navigate to a location, and save the file.

    If desired, you can import the parameter information into another model.

    For more information, see Importing Parameter Information.

  7. Save the model, if desired.
