5.  (Optional) To load the current tag memory with the contents of a previously saved

binary (.bin) file:

a.  Click on the Load button. This opens a file selection window for the

SkyeWare 4 firmware directory.

b.  Select a binary file (.bin) that contains the memory data from a compatible

tag.

c.  Click Open. This loads the stored memory onto the current tag. If the file

is incompatible with the tag (for example, if the file has more memory
than the tag can hold), the read operation fails.

6.  (Optional) To save the current tag memory contents to a binary (.bin) file:

a.  Click on the Save button. This opens a file selection window for the

SkyeWare 4 firmware directory.

b.  Enter a filename with a .bin extension in the file name field.
c.  Click the Save button. You can now load the file onto other tags using the

Load button on the memory screen.
