With the new
FMM100 core board comes a few useful new features in TA100C and AC100C. One of
the features in FMM100 core board is to allow users to backup the device’s data
and configuration in the device itself. This backed up data can be restored in
the future or it can be copied to another device of the same model whenever
needed.
This new
feature eliminates the worry of data lost or corrupted after being transferred
to the software. Take advantage of this feature to better use of the system.
There are two
types of backup available in these models.
1.
Internal backup allows you to
create backup to be saved inside the terminal itself.
2.
USB backup allows you to create
backup and save it inside the USB to be downloaded on another location without
deleting the data inside the terminal.
To back up data
internally, follow these steps:
Menu
> Data Management > Backup Data > Backup to Device > Start Backup
To restore the internal
backup data, follow these steps:
Menu
> Data Management > Restore Data > Restore from Device > Start
Restore
To back up data
into a USB flash disk, follow these steps:
Menu
> Data Management > Backup Data > Backup to USB Disk > Start Backup
To restore the backup
file from a USB flash disk, follow these steps:
Menu
> Data Management > Restore Data > Restore from USB Disk > Start
Restore
** NOTE: If you backed up the data into a USB flash disk, it is
recommended that you restore the data immediately to determine the usability of
the data. If the restoration fails, you need to repeat the backup process.
