System Administration
Upload A Configuration File - Use this menu option to upload a system configuration file
to the Watchdog Wi. This is a particularly useful option if you’re configuring more than one
Watchdog Wi and would like them to have the same settings, or if you’ve updated the
firmware on your unit and need to re-upload your current system configuration file.
Download System Configuration File - If you are going to update the firmware on a
Watchdog Wi, you should always download the configuration file first. This provides you
with a backup of your current configuration, just in case something happens during the
update process. If you’re configuring more than one Watchdog Wi and would like them to
have the same settings, you can configure one unit, download the configuration file, and
then upload it to another Watchdog Wi. Use this button to download this unit’s
configuration file.
