Backing Up and Restoring the Data
The data stored in the device's non-volatile memory can be backed up
or restored. The data includes all configuration settings. This means
that a restore procedure rolls back the device exactly to the state it
was in at the backup time. Thus, if any tuning of the settings are
planned, it is advisable to create a backup before with which the origi-
nal state can be restored.
To perform a data backup, locate the program
PulseLoader.exe
in
the directory "Program" of the enclosed software package. To back up
the system memory into a data file
Memory.txt
, execute the follow-
ing command in a Windows™ command shell
:
PulseLoader 6 -y MemoryData.txt -t
This command downloads the memory data from the device con-
nected to the virtual port COM6 into the file
Memory.txt
.
To restore the data, execute the following command:
PulseLoader 6 -Y MemoryData.txt -t
This command uploads the memory data from the file
Memory.txt
to
the device connected to the virtual port COM6.
†
Select "Run" in the start menu of Windows™ and type "cmd". Then change the direc-
tory to that with the program files using the command "cd". Finally, execute the given
command by copy & pasting and pressing "Enter". A better and more comfortable al-
ternative to the Windows™ command shell are utilities like "File Commander/W" or
"File and archive manager (FAR)". Please use the search utilities to find out how to
obtain these applications.
