6.3 Exporting/Importing a machine configuration
Overview
Machine configuration data is always exported to the ePS Network Services server, and is
always imported from the ePS Network Services server.
Example: Exporting/Importing a machine
If a machine tool is moved from one location to another, for example, the administration and
configuration data for the machine will also need to be adapted to the new environment. The
machine will then belong to a different production site and/or a different organization.
The central path taken by the machine data is always via the ePS Network Services server:
● Export the data from the eP-Satellite server ⇒ to the ePS Network Services server
● Import the data from the ePS Network Services server ⇒ to the eP-Satellite server (to a
different organization or a different eP-Satellite server)
Note
The duration of the export and import procedure is highly dependent on the amount and
scope of the machine's configuration data, and may last several minutes.
Exporting the machine's configuration data
Procedure on the eP-Satellite server:
1. Select the machine from which data is to be exported: "mach_1_Laptop_ORG"
2. On the "Administration" tab, select "Machines" → "Export and import machines".
Even if the export is to take place via the ePS Network Services server, enter the future
organization on the eP-Satellite server as the destination.
3. Start the export process. This may take some time.
– In the "State" column, "Transfer is busy" appears.
– In Business Administration, the jobs that are active during the export procedure are
displayed under "Service Request Monitor".
4. Once the export is complete, "Transfer complete" appears.
