Files and Settings Transfer Wizard

NOTE: The time required to collect and transfer data depends on the amount of data collected. Times can vary from just a few minutes to several hours.
The Files and Settings Transfer Wizard allows you to transfer files and settings from one computer to another (for instance, when upgrading to a new
computer), even if the old computer is running an earlier operating system. You transfer the data to the new computer via a network or direct serial
