An application file’s settings do not affect the receiver’s configuration 
until you apply the application file. You can do this at the same time 
that you save the file. Alternatively, you can save the file on the 
computer or in the receiver, then open it later and apply its settings.

You can store application files that you create in GPS Configurator on 
the receiver and on the computer. For example, each file can represent 
a different user sharing the same receiver, or a particular mode of 
operation or survey style. Saving application files on your computer as 
well as in your receiver is optional, but it is useful because:

•

it gives you a permanent copy of the settings you have sent to a 
receiver, for audit or your own reference.

•

 you can use the same file to configure multiple receivers 
identically.

•

you can use an existing application file as a template for 
creating other application files with similar settings.

The application filename in the office computer and in the receiver are 
always the same. This makes it easier to recognize and keep track of 
your application files. 

When you change the name of the application file in the receiver, this 
changes the application filename on your computer. When you 
transfer an application file from the receiver and save it to the 
computer, the system renames the file to match the internal receiver 
file. However, if you use Windows Explorer, for example, to change 
the .cfg filename on the computer, this does not change the internal 
receiver filename. This means that the GPS receiver does not 
recognize the change to the filename on the computer.
