To disable automatic database backups
If a system protocol is performed during the time frame of an automatically
scheduled backup, first temporarily disable the backup to prevent any interruption
to the system protocol.
1. On the
Settings
s
sc
reen, click the
Backup/Restore
tab.
2.
De-select
Enabled
in the
Scheduled Backup
section.
3.
When the system protocol is complete, select
Enabled
in the
Scheduled
Backup
section. If needed, run a manual backup.
Archiving the Database
Use this instruction to back up the Analyzer’s database to a USB memory device or a
network path and at the same time remove older data from the database.
NOTE:
Sievers recommends archiving the database once a year;
however, the Analyzer can store approximately 10 years’ worth of
data. A warning message appears when available storage space
reaches 10% or less—the Analyzer will store approximately one
years’ worth of data from the first warning.
For example, on 1 December 2020 a user archives the database and specifies that
3 months of historical data should be retained. Before the Archive is run, the database
contains 12 months of historical data (1 December 2019 through 1 December 2020).
When the Archive is run, the Analyzer creates a backup file containing all the data in the
