Working with Configuration Files
At any time, you can save the current configuration settings as a file 
(Tools > Files > Configuration > Backup configuration). This is stored in 
the base station, but we recommend that you download it and store it on 
your computer as an off-site backup. The base station identity and network 
identity are not saved as part of the configuration file.
You may want to develop a master configuration and upload it to all base 
stations in the network. The master configuration can contain all the 
different channel configurations and can be common to all base stations. 
The base station identity selects the default channel.
Base stations are delivered with a default configuration which provides 
a safe set of values. We recommend that you download it and store it on 
your computer as a backup before changing and saving any configura-
tion settings.
You can also generate a report containing all the base station’s 
configuration settings (Tools > Files > Configuration > Configuration 
report), which can be saved as a text file. We recommend that you do this 
when the base station is commissioned. This report can be useful later if 
there is a problem with the base station. Comparing the original report with 
the later one may highlight changes in configuration that are causing a 
problem.

Configuring Single Base Stations
Most base stations in non-simulcast trunked networks are single. They 
interface to a site controller but not to other base stations. The following 
explains the special considerations when configuring single base stations.
Channel Group 
Membership
Although single base stations are not actually part of a channel group, their 
channel configurations (Configure > Base Station > Channels) must still 
select a channel group (Configure > Channel Group > Channel Groups). 
Once a channel group has been selected, the following parameters need to 
be configured.
Channel Group IP 
Address
The selected channel group must be configured for single base station 
operation. Specify 127.0.0.1 as the channel group IP address. This is the 
base station’s localhost address and stops it from attempting to send voice 
packets to other base stations.
Preamble
Although the single base station’s transmitter does not receive voice 
packets from other channel group members, it still receives them from 
other base stations via trunking controllers. So, while most channel group 
settings have no effect, the preamble setting still applies and determines 
how large the transmit buffer is.
