New installation, display and Hot Panel Setting issues

Post by lemon »

Each time that install a new version of MI-Pro, it should to setup the display settings (colours, text fonts size, e.t.c) and Hot Panel Setttings.
What is the best way to install the new version?
- to install over the old installation file with the same name or
- to install to a new installation file and transfer some files that keep the display and Hot Panel Settings information?

I search all the old topics, I think a solution for the Hot Panel Setting Configuration, is to save this to a file (via Current HPST Configuration File->Save As) and upload when the new installation done.

What is the role of Scins.cfg file, it includes the information for the skins and the rest of display?

Scins.cfg contains basically the configuration data in [Setting]>[Calibration], [Setting]>[Display], [Setting]>[ADC Device] and [Setting>DAC Device]. If a new installation is made in the existing software folder without a prior uninstallation, then the old configurations in Scins.cfg will be inherited. Other files will be overwritten except those files which are not a part of the original software package.
