= ezHITConfig: Validation of Product Shipping Defaults XML =

=== XML Generation ===
  # **ezHITConfig: Prepare circuit for new settings.**
    * Read circuit.
    * Set any parameters that need adjusting: Company, Product ID, factory options, etc.
    * Save parameters to circuit (Build > Save).
    * Close application.
  # **Slider (Intricon's engineering software):  Load new settings.**
    * Read circuit.
    * Open the source PGM file (provided by customer or Engineering department).
    * Load and lock (from the menu: Communication > Load; Communication > Lock).
    * Close application.
  # **ezHITConfig:  Export new settings as XML shipping defaults.**
    * Read circuit.
    * Export parameters (save to ''\\SERVER20081\Data\ezHITConfig\Defaults'').

=== XML Validation ===
  # **ezHITConfig: Clear ezHITConfig-specific parameters and configuration from circuit.**
    * Read circuit (Connect).  
    * Refurbish circuit (Refurbish > Refurbish) which saves any changes to circuit immediately.
    * Close application.
  # **Slider: Clear Slider-specific parameters and configuration from circuit.**
    * Read circuit.
    * Optionally, review and clear scratch data (from the toolbar: Config ID > Manufacturer's Reserved Space).
    * Load and lock the parameters (from the menu: Communication > Load; Communication > Lock) of a different circuit profile so memory parameter values change.
    * Close application.
  # **ezHITConfig: Load new shipping defaults.**
    * Read circuit (Connect).
    * Set brand, product and style then load shipping defaults (Build > Ship Defaults), i.e. the newly generated XML file.
    * Save parameters to circuit (Build > Save).
    * Close application.
  # **Slider: Generate PGM file for validation.**
    * Read circuit.
    * Export parameters as PGM file (File > Save).
    * Close application.
  # **WinMerge: Validate source PGM file by comparing it to final PGM file.**
    * Compare (diff) the resulting PGM file with the original source PGM file (provided by customer or Engineering department).
