Copy Operator Configuration

The Copy Operator Configuration feature enables you to set configurations by User Level rather than by individual operator. You can configure settings for a whole group of operators at once.

This feature requires that you have already set the configuration for one operator that is the same user level as the other operators that you want to set. Then select this operator in the Copy Operator Configuration screen. You will see the User Level of this operator displayed.

You can choose to overwrite any CFG files that may exist already for your operators, or leave them alone and only write a CFG file for operators who do not have one yet.

When you select COPY to apply the settings, Collect! creates a CFG file for each operator with the user level that is displayed in the "Level" field. If you have selected "Overwrite existing," Collect! refreshes any CFG files that it finds for operators with the same user level. Otherwise, these CFG files are left alone.

Copy Operator Configuration

If you have not yet set the configuration for one operator, set all the WIP Options and other WIP settings and save the configuration. Then you can select this operator and apply the configuration to others of the same level.

Accessing Copy Operator Configuration

Select System from the top menu bar and then select Rights, Copy Operator Configuration.

Accessing Copy Operator Configuration

ID

Select an Operator ID from the pick list. This must be an operator who had a configuration saved already.

Level

This field displays the User Level of the Operator selected in the ID field. All Operators with this User Level will have the same configuration set when you select COPY.

This field is read only.

Overwrite Existing

Switch this ON if you want Collect! to refresh the configurations for all operators with the User Level you are configuring. Leave the switch OFF if you want to process only operators who do not currently have a configuration file (CFG).

Troubleshooting

When you successfully run the Copy Operator Configuration function, you will see a message indicating your success.

Copy Operator Configuration Successful

This means that Collect! has created a configuration file (CFG) in the CV11\config folder for each Operator with the User Level displayed in the Copy Operator Configuration form.

If Collect! cannot complete this operation successfully, you will see a message indicating failure.

Copy Operator Configuration Failed

You can open Collect!'s Log Viewer to determine the cause of the failure.

Application Log Entry for Copy Operator Configuration
