9.7.2 Restore settings
UR device settings can be restored to the values they were at when a URS backup file was created using the EnerVista UR
Setup software. When the IEC 61850 option is present, the settings can alternatively be to the values they were at when an
IID type backup was created either using the EnerVista UR Setup software in online mode or by using any of the supported
file transfer protocols. Note that TFTP cannot be used here, as TFTP "put" mode is disabled for security reasons.
To restore completely, a few settings need to be entered manually either via EnerVista UR Setup or via the UR device front
panel. If the restore operation is to be via Ethernet, first the UR device must have its IP address settings entered via the
front panel. These are located at

When importing a file, it cannot have a blank numeric value. All numeric values must be non-blank, otherwise the file is
rejected.
URS and IID procedures are outlined here.
To restore settings from a URS file:
1.
In EnerVista, connect to the device in the Online Window area.
2.
Right-click the .urs file in the Offline Window area and select
Add Device from File
to locate a file, and/or drag-and-
drop the file from the Offline Window area to the device in the Online Window area.

Two prompts are possible, first that the URS file does not include the complete IEC 61850 configuration and that it
needs to be recreated if you continue. This means that the URS file is from UR version 7.30 or higher, has the IEC 61850
software option in the order code, but any IEC 61850 content will be compromised and will need to be configured.
Second, a message can display that the URS file is part of a device folder and to use the device’s CID file. This means
that the URS file is from UR version 7.3 or higher, has the IEC 61850 software option in the order code, and is part of the
device folder. The user is trying to add a URS file from inside a device’s folder. Instead, the user needs to use the CID file
from the device folder.
These messages display because the roles of the protection engineer and network engineer can be separate. The
former can require a URS file, while the latter can require stored Modbus settings and protection schemes.
