Changes in the setting must be transferred to the camera.  

 

NOTE 

  Data edited in the CST are not transferred automatically to the camera 

  Data edited in CST are not transferred to the camera when you press 

Enter

 

  Data are lost during a reset or a restart of the camera if they were not saved 

to persisting memory 

  If a new setting is loaded,  or if the current setting  is reloaded, unsaved data 

get lost 

6.9  Saving data to the camera permanently 

Up to 18 different settings are available in the camera. Setting 19 is reserved for the backup of 
the default setting. 

We  recommend  to  use  settings  1  to  9  for  working  settings  and  setting  10  to  18  for  backup 
settings.  

The currently selected setting is displayed in the toolbar: 

 

To save the data to the currently selected setting, use the following:

OK

 

NOTE 

First, changes made inside CST must be transferred to the camera. If they are 
not transferred, they get lost. These functions take the data from the volatile 
memory in the camera for burning.
