Teken Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) Hello All, I don't recall if this question has ever been asked so will do so here. Is there a direct method to export the network resource file and edit the entries and than reload them back to the system. I had a Micro SD card corruption and found dozens of NR's which were completely broken and had junk data. In some cases a simple save process allowed the NR to be restored to working order. Whereas others the system will not allow any edits or changes to the NR. The only recourse is to delete the old NR and recreate it from scratch. With hundreds of NR's in my system this is extremely time consuming and there must be a easier method to save the NR to a note pad / excel and make edits?!? Edited February 6, 2020 by Teken

I'm running 5.0.16C, and I have three buttons on the bottom of the page that appears when you click on the "Network Resources" tab. It appears that the "Export" button will export all of your NRs into text files (XML), and the "Restore" lets you individually restore the files you select. I haven't ever needed this functionality, but I believe the answer to the question is, "Yes". Edited February 6, 2020 by Bumbershoot 1

Teken Posted February 7, 2020 Author Posted February 7, 2020 I had a few moments tonight to check on this question. I can confirm exporting the NR database is possible! All of the NR’s are represented as individual REC files which can be opened / edited with Note Pad ++. In the big picture this is fine when there are one offs. This however, is extremely tedious and painful when one needs to see all the NR’s in a single pane view. As noted early on having dozens of corrupted NR’s in the system. And not having the ability to edit multiple lines at once cost me hours of identification, corrections, and hair pulling! Perhaps this could be a feature request for the next generation Polyisy?!? On a related question is there a direct method to track, declare, and associate a bad program / NR to a variable?!? As I would like to create an email alert coupled to a voice announcement via Julie U.S.The system currently has the ability to visually declare a yellow coloured program fault. So, if the team can build upon that by exposing NR’s through variables substitution that would be very helpful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
