Backup and Restore
Configuration data stored on the gateway unit can be saved elsewhere in case of data loss. The
files “DATAA.CFG”, “DATAB.CFG”, and “DATAC.CFG” contain the transducer information. They can
be copied to a diskette for safekeeping.
Restoring data can be accomplished by simply copying the “DATA?.CFG” files back to the
gateway unit’s flash drive after setting up REMSERV/REMDISK or by using TRANSFER/COMM.
Detect Utility, Changing Transducer Serial Numbers, Node IDs or baud
rates
Transducer serial Numbers, Node Ids and Baud Rates can be detected and changed using the
Detect utility provided on the flash disk of the transducer gateway. Connect to the gateway using the
RS232 link and exit the gateway program by typing “SHELL” slowly (with a 1-second pause between
letters). At the command prompt, type DETECT followed by enter. A list of detected slaves will be
displayed. You can then press Escape to exit, or select a node to change. Cycle power to the gateway when
finished. Note that an error may be displayed when changing the baud rate; this is normal.
