5.4.5.1 Importing Custom Profiles and Cycles to the Blender
Once you have completed the Blend Wizard instructions and transferred a custom
profile file to a USB flash drive, follow the steps below to import the file to the
blender:
• Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the USB cover at the top of the right side
of the blender.
• Plug the USB flash drive into the blender’s USB port.
• If the blender is in manual or automatic operation mode, the USB flash drive
menu will automatically load on the LED screen. If the LED screen is already
in programming mode, go to the main menu, touch to scroll to menu item 5
(
USB Flash Drive

• From the USB flash drive menu, touch to select option 1 (
Import Profile

custom profile file (by default named
stealth.bpf
). (Note: Items with a + sign

Touch to start the import process. After the file has been imported, the
profile in the file will be automatically loaded as the active profile on the
blender.

port with a Phillips screwdriver.
5.4.5.2 Using the Secure Blender Feature
When creating or modifying a profile via the Blend Wizard, one of the options is to
secure the blender. If you select this option, once you have downloaded the profile
to a USB drive and then imported the profile to the blender, some of the advanced
programming functions will be disabled. The secured profile will be the active
profile on the blender, another profile cannot be made the active profile, and a new
profile cannot be imported to the blender (unless it was created via your Blend
Wizard account). Additionally, the blend cycles in the profile cannot be changed
on the blender, and the blender enclosure safety mode, standby time, blend cycle
pause, and slider lockout settings cannot be modified. To unlock these features,
complete the following steps:
• Log on to your Blend Wizard account at
blendtec.com/commercial/program
.
• Edit the secured profile, selecting the option to turn off the secure blender
mode, or create a new profile with the secure blender mode turned off.
• Import the profile to a USB drive, and then follow the instructions in Section
5.4.5.1 to import the file to the blender.
