It is strongly
recommended that a copy of the
database be read from the active
MPCPU and saved to the local hard disk drive
of the EASY CPU Configurator PC before
starting this procedure. This will ensure that
all recent changes made to the MPCPU by all
parties having the ability to do so have been
captured to a backup file. Please refer to the
MegaPower

CPU ADMPCPU Administrator’s
Guide, 8200-0421-03 for details on performing
this procedure.
