Note: It is important that the file name extensions (.cdm and .ndu) are not changed as they will not be
recognized by the instrument software. Similarly, the files must be located in a top-level directory of 3100.
2. With the instrument switched ON, insert the USB storage device into the USB connection on the
left side of the instrument, and press the USB icon on the instrument front panel.
3. The first screen is for exporting files from the instrument to a USB storage device, so press the
right arrow to move to the next screen.
4. The next screen is the Import User Table screen. The user table will be recognized by the
instrument and the file name displayed in the highlighted box. If more than one user table is on
the USB storage device, press the Enter key to view a list of all the user tables, and use the
up/down arrows to scroll through the list. Press the Enter key to select. When a table has been
selected, press the down arrow key until the Import File text is highlighted and press the Enter
key to import the file. On completion, a message will appear saying the instrument will have to be
turned off and on again for the new table to take effect, but as the measurement configuration
table is still to be imported this message can be ignored at this stage.
5. Press the right arrow to move to the Import Measurement Configurations screen. As with the
user table, select the measurement configuration table to import and press the down arrow key
until the Import File text is highlighted. Press the Enter key to import the file. Again, on
completion, a message will appear saying the instrument will have to be turned off and on again
for the new table to take effect.
6. As both tables have now been transferred to the instrument, turn the instrument OFF and then
back ON again for the new tables to take effect. When switched ON the two default table entries
will be loaded (i.e. default user and default measurement configuration).
