The D3 configuration file is a UNIX file (/usr/lib/pick/pick0) which contains various parameters about the D3 system, information about the UNIX environment, and statements defining the actual hardware which is available to D3.

This file, located on the Unix directory "/usr/lib/pick”. It is created automatically when you install D3 but you will need to customize it. You may use whichever unix editor you are comfortable with. Nano is quite easy to use.
