The SD Card can store more than 10 years of historical data, but backups of the card should be performed
periodically. Backing up logs requires removing the SD card and inserting it in a PC that has a card reader
interface. The standard 4GB SD card can be replaced with SD cards up to 32GB if desired.

4.3.5.1 Card Status
When the SD card is properly inserted into the card slot Card Status will display OK
.
If the No SD Warning
Enabled setting is set to Yes, and the SD card is removed or becomes corrupt the green LED on the display
panel will blink continuously and Card Status will say Card Not Found.
4.3.5.2 Logger Enabled
Enabling the Data Logger allows the ViewSmart 1600+ to record the channel data for all active channels.
4.3.5.3 Save Config File
By selecting Save Config File the current configuration file will be backed up on the SD card. This can be
beneficial in the event of a board failure or if multiple ViewSmart 1600+s must be programmed the same.
The filename of the save will be
UniteNameDDMMYY.cfg where DDMMYY is the current date. Saving
configuration will overwrite previous saves from the same date. It is recommended to backup
configuration once a unit has been fully configured and tested.
4.3.5.4 Load Config File
Once a file is backed up on the SD card it can be loaded back into the ViewSmart 1600+ to change the
current configuration to a previous configuration, or the SD card can be moved to another unit and the
configuration can be copied to the second unit. This is done by selecting Load Config File, selecting the file
with the
name and date of the configuration file that is to be copied.
