Transfer > Selective Write (in Comfigurator 3) will write only the configuration items that have been changed to Comfort since the last write, so it saves time in not requiring a full write
The Selective Write screen is shown
The items in RED are the ones that have been modified and are to be written to Comfort - they are checked automatically. Other items may be selected as required but this should not be necessary
Selective write also takes care of situations when Response numbers are changes and Events which use the Response need to be included in the selective write Eg Zone 1 Response is Response 25, but due to changes in Response, Response 25 has been renumbered to Response 27
Selective write will not just write the Responses, but it will also write the Zones to Comfort so that the Zone Responses are updated
Selective Write will also automatically RESET Comfort if needed, ie if the changed configurations require a Reset
Hence it is safe to use Selective Write when you change anything in Comfigurator
The FIRST time you do a Selective Write in a session, Comfigurator will take a longer time, around 30 seconds to bring up the Selective Write Screen
Please upgrade to the latest released Comfigurator always
