Saving settings to a configuration file
You can save or export your current settings as a Monarch LCS configuration file,
which you can then save to your computer, to a USB device connected to your
computer, or to a network drive. You can then use the configuration file to
configure other Monarch LCS devices.

You cannot save to a USB device connected to the Monarch LCS.

Under Export current settings to a Monarch LCS configuration file ,

(
MonarchLCSSettings.xml ) if you plan to automatically configure a Monarch
from a USB device (see “Automatically importing Monarch settings on
factory reset ).
The Monarch LCS configuration file is created, and contains all the Monarch
settings as XML parameters.
Automatically importing Monarch settings on factory
reset
On factory reset, the Monarch LCS can automatically import configuration
settings from a Monarch LCS configuration file that is on a USB device
connected to the USB port 2.
1 Copy the Monarch LCS configuration file to a USB device (see “Saving
settings to a configuration file ).
¦ Note The configuration file must have the original filename, given by the
Monarch LCS when the file was generated ( MonarchLCSSettings.xml ).
2 Connect the USB device to the Monarch LCS' USB port 2 (see “USB ports 1
and 2” on page 7 ).
