4.12.1 Backup settings to SD-Card

When this button is clicked, all customizable settings of each individual network and of the Head Station are

saved to SD-Card. These settings include Message recording settings, name and identification tags, scope

settings and IP and email settings.

This feature allows a quick and easy replacement of a defective Head Station. If a Head Station needs to be

replaced, and settings have been backed up on SD card, remove the SD card from the slot and place it in the

new Head Station. Then continue with paragraph 4.12.2.

When you replaced the SD card with information from another Head Station, click 'Restore settings from SD

Card' to load all information into the new Head Station. Then click 'OK' on the confirmation window.

Settings are loaded and activated instantly; no restart is required.

This button clears all entered information and restores the ComBricks Head Station to the default factory

values. The new IP address is 192.168.1.254

When a ComBricks set has been installed and is ready for normal operation, it may have recorded several

events which are not 'real' faults. This can happen during wiring or commissioning phase. Press 'Clear all data'

to start the ComBricks logging and recording functions with a clear memory. Then click 'OK' on the

confirmation window.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This will also clear all Message Recording files!

To restart the device, for example to let it read new dipswitch settings or DNS server settings, click the 'Restart

the device' button. Then click 'OK' on the confirmation window.

This 'soft'-reset will not affect PROFIBUS communication on the repeater modules; the repeater functionality

will continue during reset.
