The configuration file name includes the date and time when the
configuration was saved in YYYYMMDD-HHMM format. For example, the
file 20160803-1411.cfg was saved at 14:11 on 3rd August, 2016.
To reload a previously saved configuration, go to the

item with
the
up
▲
and
down
▼
buttons and then select the desired configuration file
with the
left
◄
and
right
►
buttons. Press
enter
to reload the selected
configuration. Please note this will change every setting in the matrix (I/O
port parameters, crosspoint presets, EDIDs, etc.) and the previous state
could be restored only if the configuration was saved earlier.
A confirmation message appears, then the progress can be started. This
may take several minutes. A status indicator shows the progress. After
the configuration reloading finished, a message appears: ‘Ready!’ and the
matrix reboots.
ATTENTION!
The matrix must not be switched off during a configuration
reload process! If the power goes off, then the matrix will restart with
factory default settings.
