Overview of Backup and Restore Operations

This function is used to back up the parameter settings from the IO-Link devices in the IO-Link Master
Unit and restore them from the IO-Link Master Unit to the IO-Link devices.
This eliminates the need to set parameters again in an IO-Link device after replacing an IO-Link de-
vice with the same model of IO-Link device.
Perform automatic backup
or execute backup
instructions by a communi-
cations instruction to the
