SD CARD OPERATION
The PPC4000 provides the means to backup and restore settings and profile data using a secure digi-
tal (SD) memory card. The front of the PPC4000 contains a slot where the SD card is inserted and
removed. An LED is included that illuminates when SD operations are being processed. An SD card
should never be inserted or removed while the LED is lit.
SD cards are available in various types and capacities. The different types are SDSC (standard capac-
ity), SDHC (high capacity) and SDXC (extended capacity). SDHC types have a capacity ranging
from 4GB to 32 GB. SDHC types use FAT32 only. (It is highly recommended that use be limited to
SDHC types.) Any particular brand SD card may be used.
Functions included in the SD operations menu include BACKUP, RESTORE, DELETE and FOR-
MAT. From the top layer menu at the line named SD CARD OPS SETUP press the NEXT key to
open up the following sub-menu:
In order to enter any of the sub menus listed above, an SD card must be installed.
BACKUP OPERATION
The BACKUP function provides options that backup all profiles and setup data collectively, all pro-
files only, each profile individually or setup data only. Selecting BACKUP with the NEXT key
moves to the following sub menu:
Depending on what BACKUP type is selected, the PPC4000 applies a unique file name and exten-
sion that includes the current date (ddmmyy) and time (hhmm) in military format to uniquely iden-
tify the file type. To insure accuracy and consistency it is extremely useful to assure the real time
clock of the PPC4000 is correctly set prior to any BACKUP operation.
