With the old [[Teltonika Configurator]] you could only save a full configuration file or save the configuration you created straight to the device.
Without the aforementioned options, '''Telematics Configuration Tool (TCT)''' introduces a new option - to save only the changes you have made. More on that below:

===Full save===

Save the entire configuration including changes you made and all other available parameters.

===Only changes===

A new saving method added to TCT. Save the configuration file with parameters that you made changes for. This allows you to bypass other parameters that were not configured in the file.

'''Note:''' '''Only changes''' option saving method always includes FOTA WEB settings (ID: 13003) parameter in order to send configuration over the air.
