Import RPD/RMD to ACCP
Last Updated: July 07, 2026
You can import or export ACCP configuration. This functionality is mainly helpful when you have a large number VUE severs to configure. You can also import or export the entire VUE system configuration using the import or export functionality in the System window.

To add an RPD/RMD device to a particular ACCP instance, you must import a JSON configuration file (RPD.json) containing a list of RPD/RMD devices and its desired channel configurations. When the file is being imported, it is associated to a particular ACCP instance designated to manage only those devices within the imported file.

Before you begin, make sure you have the JSON file with all the required configuration saved in your machine.

  1. Login to Element Manager, https://<VPS#2_IP_address>:5557.
  2. Create a JSON file that contains the new RPD/RMD. You can also include ACCP core configuration.
    A default ACCP configuration file is created during VUE installation. This ACCPConfig.json file is stored in the /var/opt/vue-server/accp/ directory. Modify the ACCPConfig.json file to add the new RPD/RMD and channel identification.
  3. Click ACCP on the left navigation pane.
  4. Click the Import button.
    A new dialog displays. Browse to the location on your system where you have saved the JSON file. You can also drag and drop the required JSON file.
    NOTE: If the import operation fails, you may have attempted to import the RPD definition file that is currently in use. The VUE EM will not overwrite the existing configuration with the same information.

    VUE also rejects any import file that contains more than 100 RPD configurations. If you have a large configuration JSON file to import, you must manually split the file into multiple files.

    If you want to create a new version of the ACCPConfig.json file containing the current RPDs/RMDs, click the Export button. Right-click in the JSON display window that opens and save the JSON file for editing or archiving.

  5. Click Submit to complete the ACCP configuration.
