Continuing the saved parameter setting on function 1, for example I have next controller that I want to have the same parameter setting with controller node ID one (Entrance)

Step 1. Select [881EF/V_725Ev2 Parameters]

Step 2. Select node ID of your new controller that you wish to paste the existed parameter setting

Step 3. Select [Read From] to read current parameter setting of controller

Picture above is after loading (Read File) of saved parameter setting.
You will notice that the parameter setting is difference than the default one.
Before you directly write and save the parameter, please change:

Step 8. Input ‘New Node ID’, ‘Door Nr.’ And Door Nr [WG]’ to differentiate one controller with another. This is because both three setting included on parameter setting BUT each unit controller must have different node ID, door no. and WG door no. this step does not applicable for AR-716-E16 as AR-716-E16 node ID is set up by DIPSWITCH and does not have RFID function on it so door no. and WG door no. does not exist.

Step 9. Select [Write To] to save the new parameter setting
