The Backup and Restore application lets you back up the current system image
on the HMI terminal, then restore that image to the same terminal, or clone it to
other terminals. This function is intended for OEMs who want to back up a
terminal image, then clone or copy that same image to multiple terminals.
A typical backup includes the following:
• File system
• Firmware image
• Windows registry
Additional user configuration data is included in the backup if you check
Advanced Network & Display Settings.
