The ‘
Restore
’ function allows this product to be returned to an earlier state without losing data.
This is useful if it is not operating correctly because of a configuration change or a problem with
an application, i.e. file loss and data corruption, but is most useful for disaster recovery if this
product fails completely.
By restoring to an earlier state (a version before it began to display problems) it may be possible
to resolve the problems caused by a serious system issue or data loss. However, the restore
function can also be used to configure another unit before it is fitted to an existing system,
reducing the repeat engineering time.
Remember This feature is also used to apply update files as necessary.

complete and it automatically restarts.
