
After setting the service switch positions, you have 10 seconds to revert to ready status
(service switch back to "1": ON, "2": OFF) before Fiery Clone Tool begins restoring the image
file.
9.
Wait for the program on the USB flash drive to format the E-25C HDD and restore the image file.

The diagnostic LEDs circulate "C1, C2, C3" to indicate format and restore is in progress.

When restore process is complete, the diagnostic LEDs flash "CC", then "00" in one second
intervals and repeats to indicate completion status.

If an error occurs during the restore process, the diagnostic LEDs flash "EE", then the error
code in half-second intervals. [Link to LED Error Codes Related To the Fiery Clone Tools /
Fiery System Restore ]

Remove the USB flash drive from the USB port.
11.
Press and release the power switch on the front panel of E-25C.
E-25C will automatically enter the shutdown procedure.
12.
When the E-25C power is down (that is when the diagnostic LEDs are off), turn the main power
switch of the E-25C to OFF.
13.
Reboot the E-25C.
14.
Optional: After restoring the E-25C, run System Updates to ensure the latest E-25C software
version is installed.
15.
Optional: If a backup of the configuration settings is available, restore the configuration settings as
described in this document [Link to Restoring Backup Files ]
This can be useful if the configuration backup is more current than the system image backup (for
example, when restored to the factory default) or if the configuration backup includes the job log
and VDP/FreeForm Resources.
Backing Up/Restoring E-25C System with Fiery Clone Tools
The Fiery Clone Tool allows you to clone the entire Fiery system to an image file and save it in a folder
on a USB flash drive connected to the E-25C. You can restore the image file to the same E-25C (with
same key chip) in order to restore the system to a previous configuration.
The Fiery Clone Tool functions with the service switches and the diagnostic LEDs of the rear panel of
the E-25C to communicate the status, error, progress and actions required. The service switches are
used to apply an action. The diagnostic LEDs flash codes in one second intervals to prompt required
actions and to indicate progress and completion of a process, and in half-second intervals to indicate
error statuses.
