The name of the project configuration file that you need to use in CPRog for your robot is composed as follows. Use the table below to identify the
 
filename:
 
In general, any configuration file is comprised as follows:
 
<code> <#><IGUS_DQ_arm/IGUS_arm>_<4DOF/5DOF>_<SV/BV>_<AE/ME>.prj </code>
 
 
 
Answering the questions in the table below, should narrow your choice down to a single file in the folder <code>C:\CPRog\Data\Projects\</code>.

=Which project configuration file am I currently using?=
 
You can see which project file is currently in use in the title bar of CPRog, while the CPRog window is '''not''' maximised to fill the screen. (You will notice that when it is maximised, the test is currently not readable.)
