Points to Note When Uploading/Downloading MeapBack
If you need to re-install the system software to correct a fault, you may upload MeapBack and then download it back after formatting the HDD (by temporarily
putting aside the MEAP application).
1) Upload MeapBack.
2) Execute HDD all format.
3) Re-install the system software.
At this time, be sure that the system software is the same as that existed before formatting the HDD. Otherwise, you will not be able to download MeapBack
you have uploaded.
4) Download MeapBack.
You will not be able to download MeapBack you have uploaded unless you are downloading it to the machine you have uploaded it from.
MEMO:
- If you are planning to replace the HDD or execute ALL or APL_MEAP formatting, it will be a good idea to upload the MeapBack file in advance and then
download after the work by way of temporarily keeping away the MEAP application.
- If you are planning to replace the Reader controller PCB, you can upload the SramRCON file in advance, and download it after replacement so that the service
mode and other settings may be inherited.
- If you are planning to replace the DC controller PCB, you can upload the SramDCON file in advance, and download it after replacement so that the service mode
and other settings may be inherited.
