STAR Ultra Local Database Backups
7–6 iSTAR Ultra Installation and Configuration Guide
See the C•CURE 9000 Hardware Configuration Guide and the C•CURE 9000 help for more
information.
STAR Ultra Local Database Backups
The iSTAR Ultra configuration data (doors, personnel, etc.) is held in volatile RAM during
normal operation (IP settings are stored in the controller’s onboard flash memory). This data is
backed up to non-volatile SD Card memory on a periodic basis during normal operation. Data
is automatically backed up after a fast download to the panel, and, upon a soft reset on the
GCM board.
To ensure that the backup is current, Software House recommends to trigger an additional
database backup whenever the Low Battery or AC Fail input is activated on the GCM board.
This is accomplished by creating an event with an action of “ Backup iSTAR Database ” and
then triggering the event from the Low Battery and AC Fail inputs. If your power supply does
not have this feature, then you can trigger the database backup event using a schedule. For
example, set the backup to run at 2AM every Monday.
When power is restored after an outage, the Ultra first attempts to connect to its host server. If
successful, the host will download the current time to the Ultra, and download the current
database. However, if the host is not present, then the Ultra will use its local backed-up time,
and it will use the last saved database from the SD card.
When the host is offline, transaction buffers of card activity and other activity are
automatically written to non-volatile memory, and do not require database backup
configuration.

Proper Shutdown Sequence
You must properly shut down the iSTAR Ultra unit. If you do not properly shut down the
iSTAR Ultra GCM using the following procedure, the SD card can become corrupted.
Perform the following procedure when shutting down the iSTAR Ultra at all times, regardless
of removing or replacing the SD card.
1. On the iSTAR Ultra GCM board, locate the SW3 rotary switch and the restart button SW7 .
2. Set the rotary switch SW3 to position 0 .
3. Press and release the restart button SW7.
4. Monitor the LCD display. A “Shutting down!” message appears.
NOTE
If CPNI mode is enabled on the iSTAR Ultra, then all database and transactions are stored in
RAM. The database and transactions are not backed up on the SD card.
