TimeIPS
The best way to protect the TimeIPS data is to use an automatic, off-site backup system. A
loss of just a few days of data can take hours or days of work to re-enter and re-create.
The TimeIPS off-site backup service is designed for businesses that are looking for password-
protected, automatic, off-site backups at an affordable price. Utilizing our off-site backup
service will allow a TimeIPS master system to be rebuilt using the data from the last available
backup file on our secure servers in the unlikely event of system malfunction, data corruption
or loss. A backup will get your business back up and running as quickly as possible.
To use the TimeIPS off-site backup service, you must have a backup account. Use our
“Account Management” page to sign up for your backup account, check your backup account
status, or upgrade your backup account. You may access this page by clicking the link
“TimeIPS Off-site Backup Account Management” located in the “Off-site Backup” section of
the “Backups” page, and follow the instructions on this page. The “Backups” page is
accessible from the “System Administration” section of the “Administration” menu.
A security password is used to encrypt off-site backups. This password should be chosen
carefully and
MUST NOT BE LOST OR FORGOTTEN.
Recovery of a lost or forgotten
security password requires sending the TimeIPS station to our service department and paying
a service fee. In the unlikely event that the TimeIPS station is lost in a natural disaster, fire, is
destroyed, completely corrupted, or suffers total failure, you must have your security
password to restore your data from the off-site backup. Contact our Technical Support
Department if you have any questions.
Important:
An Internet connection is required to use off-site backups.
