3.3. Creating Template Information
The purpose of the Template file (*.tut file) is to avoid reentering 
Company Information and/or Custom Cable Definitions for each job by 
saving the information in a Template that can be used on multiple jobs. 
You can also use an existing Job to create a Template.
Test-Um recommends creating one or more reusable Template files (*.tut 
files) when you perform the initial setup on your Validator-NT.  Each time 
you create a New Job select the template that you created and make 
changes to the information as necessary.
The most efficient way to create templates is by using the Plan-Um 
software.  See the section of the Plan-Um instruction booklet titled 
Managing Job Files/Save and Export As Template for complete 
instructions.  Template files can be created and stored in Plan-Um 
and uploaded to the Validator-NT as needed, or created directly in the 
Validator-NT. 
1.  To enter Template Information using the Validator-NT keypad, 
select Auto Test on the Start screen.  Enter the Contractor and/or 
Custom Cable Information that you wish to save as a template.  
Press Quit to return to the Auto Test screen.
2.  Select Job Utilities and navigate to the Export Tut button. 
3.  Use the alphanumeric keypad 
to name the Template. Use the 
Backspace (F1) and Delete 
(F2) soft keys to edit the name 
as required.  Press Accept to 
complete the name.  Press 
OK (F3) soft key to save the 
template information under the 
name entered. 
4.  The Template Information that you created contains contractor 
and/or custom cable information associated with the current job.  
You can use this template as it is or edit the information when 
loaded into other jobs. You can also use an existing Job to create 
a Template.
