Save Defaults

Save Default Specification File

Use the Save Defaults option to save defaults, such as horizon parameters, variable parameters, period definitions, report defaults and general defaults.

The format of the file name in which the details are stored is:

<spec.id>_spec.rsu_cmnd

where spec.id is the specification identifier (or name). The file is stored in your working directory. More than one specification file may exist. The required one can be loaded in the Load Defaults option.

			
   SAVE_DEFAULTS /variable_parameters /specification_identifier='file name' /report_defaults /horizon_parameters /general_defaults /period_definitions

Instructions

On the Rsvute menu, point to Files, and then click Save Defaults to display the Save Defaults panel.

Specification Identifier

Enter, or select from the drop-down list, the name of the .rsu_cmnd file for the defaults. If you specify the name of an existing file, then you will be asked whether or not you want to overwrite this file. The specification identifier is optional.

If you don't specify the identifier, then the resulting file will be named defaults.rsu_cmnd and the defaults will automatically load and become active when starting Rsvute.

Horizon Parameters

Select this check box to save the current horizon parameters, in particular the crop lines, as the default.

Variable Parameters

Select this check box to save the current variable parameters, including the variable cut-offs and limits, as the default. The current coal thickness variable is also saved.

Period Definitions

Select this check box to save the current period definitions as the default.

Report Defaults

Select this check box to save the current report settings as the defaults.

General Defaults

Select this check box to save the current general settings such as units, precision, density and class radii as the defaults.

Click OK.
