Data backup under Windows Embedded Standard 7 32-bit / Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit
For backing up data under Windows Embedded Standard 7 32-bit and Windows 7 Ultimate
32-bit, we recommend the software tool SIMATIC IPC Image & Partition Creator (as of V3.3.1).
This tool allows the easy backing up and quick restoration of entire memory cards.
The SIMATIC IPC Image & Partition Creator only supports the burning of DVD media.
This software is available via the online ordering system Siemens Industry Mall
www.siemens.com/industrymall). You can find more accurate information about the tool in the
associated product documentation.

Restore DVD

SIMOTION P320‑4 is supplied with pre-installed hardware and software and is therefore ready
for connection and operation.
The delivery kit includes a restore DVD. Using the restore DVD, you can restore the delivery
state of the SIMOTION P320-4, e.g. in case of a problem when installing additional software
packages such as HMI software.
It is recommended that you create a data backup after commissioning by the OEM. Save the
data backup on an external hard disk or a USB flash drive.
The fundamentals of the data storage concept and the various types of data back-ups of the
SIMOTION P320-4 are described in the section on the Data storage concept (Page 97).
Note
SIMOTION licenses
SIMOTION Runtime licenses are retained (e.g. axis licenses) when the SIMOTION P320-4 is
restored to its delivery state.
Only the licenses of the Automation License Manager are deleted (e.g. for the
SIMOTION SCOUT engineering system).
