settings are only restored if the backup memory was derived from an identical card type. The 
box can be left unchecked if the backup file and the card in the slot are versions of the same 
type of card. As before – 

check the box if in doubt

The ‘Settings file’ button will display a list of backup files that are available for manual 
restoration. These files are backup files that have been copied manually from the ‘backup’ 
folder to the ‘import’ folder via FTP and may have been renamed. - 

see section 

File Structure

 

for more information.

 

 

Note also that a file created in a particular slot can be used to restore the settings into any or 
all slot positions. For example if a card has been set up in slot 1, a number of similar cards can 
be fitted to the frame and the backup file applied to one or all of the cards to set them up the 
same as the original card. The ‘Refresh’ button will update this list. 

The ‘FTP Import/Export’ button opens a window to the ‘import’ folder showing a list of the 
backup files that have so far been manually copied there: 

 

Finally, click on ‘Restore’ to overwrite the card(s) current settings from the selected backup file.

This page (

frame software v5.1 or later

) enables the user to add an alpha-numeric label to the 

frame and to every slot.
