5.11. Configuration Cloning (Backup Tab)
Backup tab in Settings menu
Configuration cloning of Lightware LW3 devices is a simple method that eliminates the need to repeatedly
configure certain devices to have identical (non-factory) settings. If the devices are installed in the same
type of system multiple times then it is enough to set up only one device to fit the user’s needs and then copy
those settings to the others, thus saving time and resources.

Steps in a Nutshell
Installing multiple devices with the same customized configuration settings can be done in a few easy steps:
Step 1.
Configure one device with all your desired settings using the LDC software.
Step 2.
Backup the full configuration file to your computer.
Step 3.
If needed, make some modifications to the configuration file using a text editor (e.g. Notepad). E.g.
modifying the static IP address is necessary when DHCP is not used.
Step 4.
Connect to the other device which has to be configured and upload (restore) your configuration file.
Step 5.
Done! You can have as many totally identical, customized devices as you like.
