Re-importing the files created from ETS3If the procedure for importing the files created from ETS3 is carried out after having previously performed a similar import procedure (without having firstrestored the database to the initial conditions or to the condition of "empty" database) the following rules will be followed:• All the addresses in the new imported file which are not in the database (or in the already imported files) are imported and added to the systemstructure represented in the "ETS Configuration" window.• All the addresses matching the previously configured ones, but assigned to devices with different application program, replace all the previousones, and any reports and masters that affect them (including the settings that affect the graphics) are deleted.• All the addresses matching the previously configured ones, but with a different EISType, replace all the previous ones, and any reports andmasters that affect them (including the settings that affect the graphics) are deleted.• If the new files include addresses which are already in the software database (from a previous installation), but they are not of the same type,the user is asked how to proceed (whether to keep the previous ones or import new ones, losing all additional configurations on the samefiles).• If during the re-import no physical address is found, the old physical address with all its connections is kept. It must be manually removedfrom the environments (in the ETS config. - ENVIRONMENTS zone section).• If during the re-import no group address is found, the old group address with all its connections is kept. It must be manually removed from theenvironments (in the ETS config. - ENVIRONMENTS zone section).• If during the re-import an environment with a name which does not exist in the database is found, such environment is added. This is becausethe environment is uniquely identified by its name.So if you customized the name of an environment, the re-import will create a duplicate of the environment itself (with a different name), with allthe devices (identified by databank and physical address) and all the group addresses (identified by group address and EISType).This procedure was provided for easier integration of data from devices added to an existing system (and already configured in the Well-Contact Suitesoftware), for example following an extension of the automation system.In this case, assuming that the previous part of the system has undergone no changes, you must follow these steps:1. Add the new part of the system (with its topological structure…) to the existing ETS3 project.2. Export the ETS3 project files, as described in the chapter Appendix B: Exporting system configuration files from ETS3 .3. Import the new files created from ETS3.4. Make any customizations required for the configuration.Note that in this case, all configurations previously made which relate to the previous part of the system (including user interface supervisioncustomizations) will be kept and only the additional parts of the system need customizing (compared with the original layout).IMPORTANT: If you want to re-import system data, erasing all data from a previous configuration before importing the files created from ETS3you need to "Restore the database", as described in the chapter Restoring the initial data of the database.Integrating system data imported from ETS3As seen in the previous chapters, after importing the configuration data of the automation system devices, so that the Well-Contact Suite software can fullyand properly supervise the system, you need to enter more configuration data, using the sections of the "ETS Configuration" window.Changing the topology of the system imported from ETS3As seen in the previous chapters, after importing the configuration data of the automation system devices, you can change the topological structure of thesystem, using the sections of the "ETS Configuration" window.This feature of the Well-Contact Suite software is useful when data referred to the topological structure of the system have not been included in the ETS3project (using the KNX ETS3 software) or if you want to change or add to the structure included in ETS3.121
