Kind of a trick question. The file that you pull/get from Calterm can honestly be named anything you want it to be. The file extension ".cal or .xcal or .txt" etc doesn't even matter from what I have been able to tell.

Did you use insite to make a back up copy of the ecm image/template? You shouldn't need it with what you are doing but it's better to have it and not need it then to need it and not have it.
