HMMMM?
See help quote below. As you said its still unclear to me. Only if you selected "Write to Controller on Start-up"
5 If you selected Write to Controller on Startup, specify what values to write to the controller.
Select: To:
Use Terminal Presets: Write initial values set by application
Use Last Terminal States: Write values present prior to power-up. This is the default.
Note: Preset values for objects are set in the object’s dialog. These values override initial values entered in the Tag Editor except for numeric entry objects.

Mickey: Sorry, man. I misspelled your name.
That's the line I was looking at. It will save data values over a power-cycle, if you so choose. Most of the machines I have around decide for themselves
what initial values should be, so I don't generally have that turned on. This is the line that could use clarification:
"These values override initial values entered in the Tag Editor except for numeric entry objects. "
After some experimentation, I'm going to guess that it refers to the "Initial State" setting that does NOT appear on the Numeric Entry object dialog. A dead end?
Wildcatherder: Have you tried saving the file with your values intact, and editing that? (as opposed to re-upping the original editted file repeatedly) ? I'd guess yes by now, but it's worth a try...
I don't have any PV's to experiment on right now.
