Aetos Installation Manual

Backup
Since 2019 we do not equip Aetos with internal sensors anymore. We use

Backup
This command creates several backup files and stores them on a USB memory
stick. It effectively stores all major settings. The saved files can be used to
transfer the same settings to a different instrument or to restore settings on
an existing one.
A valid USB memory stick must be inserted in USB port before the command
is issued. On success,
Nesis-Backup
folder is created on USB stick with the
following files:
Settings.bak

stores pilots and instructors.
UserWpts.bak

airplane
folder stores all layout
*.conf
files found on Aetos.

folders exists (each in its own parent folder), then a window is shown
to select the parent folder to copy from.
On success, all above mentioned files are restored and Aetos is restarted.
