Import/Export
This window lets you save or reload a configuration file from an
external storage device.
We strongly recommend that you make a dated backup copy of your
configuration file immediately after installation as well as after any
adjustment; this could save your hours of headache!
Plug the USB drive that holds (or will hold) the config file into a
USB port of the recorder, then click
Refresh . The drive should show
up next to Device Name, with the contents of the drive displayed in
the table below.
To import a config file, click on the file in the list, then click Import .
This automatically installs the config file, overwriting the recorder’s
current configuration. The system reboots after the new config has
been installed.
To export your recorder’s config file, first navigate to the location
on your flash drive where you want it saved. You can click
New
Folder to create a folder on the flash drive if desired. Then click
Export . The recorder copies its configuration data to your drive. We
recommend changing the name of the backup file to reflect the date
and time of its creation.
Click Back to return to the settings menu, or Live View to return to
the live page.
Update
This page lets you upgrade (or downgrade, if necessary) your
firmware.
We do not recommend using this interface. Using OvrC or the web
interface is much easier.
Local Upgrade Tab
Use this option if you are upgrading from a flash drive that is
plugged into the recorder.
Plug the USB drive with the new firmware into a USB port of the
recorder, then press
Refresh
. The drive shows up next to Device
Name, with the contents of the drive displayed in the table below.
Click on the appropriate firmware file, then click Upgrade to begin
the operation. The system reboots when it is completed.
