I have a 3400 EE and a 4500EF. If I make parameter changes on the EE unit (red lines, etc.), how are they copied to the second unit? I see a 'Copy' button on the Admin pages but don't know if this is what does it, and if so, how to actually copy from one unit to the other. Thanks

How do you do it Jim? The easiest way I found was to download to an SD card on the source box and then upload from that card on the target. Is your way any easier?

Nope, that's exactly what I did. Still don't know what the 'Copy' button is for though.

jim,

anytime there's a "copy" button, it's normally not in the sense that one would expect (like copying files and such). it works more like "paste", taking current values from a sensor or such (fuel sensors e.g.) and pasting them in the active edit field (e.g. when calibrating the fuel tanks).

"copy" in the sense of saving a file to the sd-card works via the "backup" function in the sdcard menu.
