Creating a PAD Profile
Overview
To create a TPA PAD Profile, select Copy/Insert Record from the Main menu. Using
the Copy Special PAD Profile from PROM function, you can copy default TPA PAD
profiles. There are two default TPA PAD profiles:
• TPA_HOST – (for the Host PAD)
• TPA_RMOT – (for Remote PADs)
Once a default profile is copied, it can then be modified to meet your requirements.
Copying default profiles is the recommended method of creating PAD Profiles
because parameters not needed in polled environments are disabled. TPA PAD
profiles can also be newly created rather than modified by using the Configure PAD
Profile Table function.
