Is it possible to transfer device configuration for native Schneider Electric meters from one EGX300 to another?

Issue
Custome would like to transfer native device configuration from one EGX to another
Product Line
EGX300

Environment
EGX300, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome

Cause
Customer doesn't want to recreate the configuration

Resolution
Yes, It is possible. Follow the instructions below
1.  Both EGX's need to be on the same Firmware.  Strongly suggested that you also have the same Disk Update version on each.
2.  With an Administrator account, FTP into the (Primary) EGX300 and copy the file named egx300cfg.txt from the root.  I suggest that you save this to your PC keeping the same name.
3.  (Best Practice) - This step is not mandatory; however, I would propose that you make a backup copy of the (Secondary) EGX file namedegx300cfg.txt for your safe keeping.  This will be overwritten once you make the copy.
4.  With an Administrator account, FTP the file named egx300cfg.txt from your PC, to the (Secondary) EGX300 root directory.
5.  This will cause your EGX300 to reboot.

What is replicated?
The register list in the EGX300...
The top banner text and color of the EGX300.
The Device List...already configured like the Primary.
The same User accounts

Note: A free FTP client like FileZilla can be use to transfer the files to the different EGX300. The same procedure can be follow if this is used
