Exporting and Importing Settings

When you have different device types, you can save the settings for one device and then export them to reuse with a different device. This may include host profiles, emulation parameters, scripts, screen reformatting, custom keyboards, resources you have added using the resource editor, or localization files. This type of export compiles the selected settings into a .wltna file. Save the file where it can be accessed when you are configuring another device, then import it using either Wavelink Avalanche or the ActiveSync installer.

To export settings using Avalanche:

1  From the Java Console, select the profile that has the configured TE Client package.

2  From the Software Packages area of the Software Profile tab, select the package and click Configure.

3  The Configure Software Package dialog box appears. From the available list, double-click Import/Export Settings.

4  The Import/Export Settings dialog box appears. Select either Export (save) all the current settings to a file or Export (save) selected settings to a file and click Next. If you choose to export selected settings, the Select Export Settings dialog box allows you to choose the settings you want to export.

5  The Save As dialog box appears. Specify a name for the file and where it should be saved and click Save. Once the settings have been exported, they can be imported using the same Import/Export Settings option -- just choose the Import (load) emulation settings saved in a file option.

To export settings using the ActiveSync installer:

1  From the Product Configuration dialog box, click Import/Export Settings.

2  The Import/Export Settings dialog box appears. Select either Export (save) all the current settings to a file or Export (save) selected settings to a file and click Next. If you choose to export selected settings, the Select Export Settings dialog box allows you to choose the settings you want to export.

3  The Save As dialog box appears. Specify a name for the file and where it should be saved and click Save. Once the settings have been exported, they can be imported using the same Import/Export Settings option -- just choose the Import (load) emulation settings saved in a file option.
