Transfer of the confi guration using a USB stick

The USB-based confi guration method can be used if the REX 100 cannot be reached 

either through the local network (LAN) or through the Internet. The prerequisite for 

this is a PC with a USB terminal, an Internet connection to the myREX24 V2 portal 

and an FAT-formated USB stick.

In the myREX24 V2 portal, select the “Download to PC” option in the device settings.

Download the confi guration fi le provided by the myREX24 portal to your PC and 

save it on a FAT-formated USB stick. The fi le is called myrex24.mbn for the initial com-

missioning of the REX 100. All of the following confi guration fi les generated for this 

router are automatically generated by the system as myrex24.mbnx. Never rename 

this fi le.

3. Save the configuration file

1. Log-In at myREX24 V2

2. Create/edit and download the

  REX 100 configuration

4. Transfer the configuration

Now carry out the steps described on page 22 in chapter 11 “Load confi guration/

fi rmware update from the USB stick.”
