Table 37: Description of the Parameters of the "Package Server" Page
When creating packages using this function, the packages are automatically
copied from the media (CF card/USB storage) to the device when starting the
device.

Security question
You are not prompted to save the packages when booting. All
data on the media (CF card/USB storage) is automatically
copied to the system and old data/programs are overwritten.
Restore
When restoring, the backups previously saved on the active media of the IPC are imported. The
packages are saved to the active partition from the source selected. After restoring the "System"
and/or "Settings" packages, the IPC is automatically restarted. If only the "CoDeSys" package is
installed, only the run-time system is stopped during the backup.
In contrast to the other packages, the system restore has the special feature that an extra partition is
available for this purpose. The backup files are copied to the partition and only activated after the
IPC is automatically restarted .with the toggled boot loader. As a result, the old version of the
system is still available (as long as the "Restore" function is not executed) and can be activated
again using the "Start Backup System" function on the "Administration" WBM page.
Source
All possible memory media as the source of backup files are displayed. The
currently active partition, i.e. the restore destination, does not appear in the list,
rather in the table to the far right under "active partition".
Packages
You can select which package(s) you want to restore by selecting the
respective checkboxes. To select all packages, mark the "All" checkbox.
"Network" is also a special case during the restore process, i.e. the browser
sends the backup files from your computer to the IPC as an upload. You have
to determine, which files should be used. If "Network" is selected, additional
input fields then appear for the names of each backup file. After clicking the
[BROWSE]
button, the file selection menu of your browser appears, allowing
you to select the required file. The name is then checked to ensure it follows
the naming convention specified by the IPC during the download process. If
not, a warning message appears. You can still upload the file, but to increase
the security at this point, as already mentioned under Backup, it makes sense to
not change the actual file names when downloading. The warning message also
appears if you inadvertently select a completely inappropriate file or a backup
file that does not belong to another package. Please check this carefully before
executing the "Restore" function anyway.
For all other selection options in the "Source" menu, the website itself will
determine which are available on the source media selected. This takes some
time which is why (in the box for package selection) a corresponding message
appears. This process is also needed when first calling up the website. The
checkboxes of the unavailable packages are grayed out.
Active Partition
The currently active media appears. This is always the restore destination.
