You can load a system backup into the system. The backup is usable when you, for example, want to
replace an unit and need an exact copy.
1. To load a system backup, hold the buttons
LOAD + BACKUP
until the light above the SD‑card
starts to flash green.
2. When the process is completed, the light will shine green for
5 seconds
. Now the full backup is
done.
If an error should occur, the light will flash red for 15 minutes. A file will be transferred to the SD card
with information about the error (as long as the card is not write‑protected).
If there is only one backup file on SD‑card (in the file system root) it will be restored. If there are
automatically generated backups tha latest backup will be restored.
