Resetting All Configurations To Their Factory Defaults; Backing-Up And Restoring Configuration Files - Spectracom SecureSync 1200 User Reference Manual

4.7 Resetting the Unit to Factory Configuration
If SecureSync was assigned a static IP address before cleaning the configurations, it will be
reset to DHCP after the clean has been performed. If no DHCP server is available after the
clean operation, the static IP address will need to be manually reconfigured. See "Assigning a
Static IP Address" on page 45.
4.7.1

Resetting All Configurations to their Factory Defaults

To restore the configuration files to their factory defaults:
1.
Navigate to TOOLS > SYSTEM: Upgrade/Backup .
2.
In the Actions panel, click the Restore Factory Defaults (Clean) button.
3.
SecureSync restores the configuration files to the factory settings, and then reboots in
order to read the new configuration files. Once powered back up, SecureSync will be
configured with the previously stored files.
Erasing the position stored in your GNSS receiver means that the next time the GNSS
antenna is connected and the GNSS receiver is able to continuously track at least four
satellites, a new GNSS survey will be initiated, so the position can be recalculated and
locked-in. A GNSS survey typically takes up to 33 minutes.
4.7.2

Backing-up and Restoring Configuration Files

Once SecureSync has been configured, it may be desired to back up the configuration files to
a PC for off-unit storage. If necessary in the future, the original configuration of the SecureSync
can then be restored into the same unit.
The capability to backup and restore configurations also adds the ability to "clone" multiple
SecureSync units with similar settings. Once one SecureSync unit has been configured as
desired, configurations that are not specific to each unit (such as NTP settings, log configs, etc.)
can be backed up and loaded onto another SecureSync unit for duplicate configurations.
There are several configuration files that are bundled in one file for ease of handling.
