The Export As menu item will save the currently open device information models as a device map file in JSON or text format. The device must be open using the Device → Open menu. Click Browse to choose the location where to save the file. Click Export to save the file as a JSON or text file.

You can now open the device file at any time by selecting a Device Type of Device File and navigating the file location. You can also forward the file to another colleague, so they can see the device implementation and open it in LabTest or SunSpec Dashboard.
