8.3.1 Backup And Restore Procedure
The backup and restore functions are valid for any application layout type. They can be
performed by:
the SC4000 Menu through its Display and Keypad
the Genius™ Device Menu>CBX/SC4000 Backup & Restore command.
CAUTION
The Genius Tools Menu>Backup or Restore commands will not work if the
network contains 2D readers.
If it ever becomes necessary to replace the SC4000 it can be quickly configured by
substituting the Backup and Restore module inside the new SC4000 with the old one and
then performing the Restore procedure.
The Backup and Restore Module always provides complete backup and restore functions
(Configuration and Environmental parameters) and cannot be interrupted once.
For network nodes, the backup module of the ID-NET™ Master saves the configuration
of all the reading devices in the network, Master and all individual Slaves.
The Slaves
must be configured with the same network baudrate as the Master before
performing the Restore procedure.
