4.5.3 Backing up Data

4-8
You can back up certain types of data and restore it if needed. There are
other types of data that you can only collect, but you cannot restore.
 If you have certain variables that represent tuning parameters
(setpoints, for example) you can use tools such as the OpenBSI
DataView recipe feature to save those values to a recipe file on the
PC, and then restore them at a later time. See Chapter 8 of the
OpenBSI Utilities Manual (D5081).
 You can store the contents of read/write data arrays using the
OpenBSI Data Array Save/Restore utility. See Chapter 13 of the
OpenBSI Utilities Manual (D5081).
 You can collect alarms, and historical data (audit records, archive
files) but you cannot restore alarms or historical data.
