14.3. Update/Backup Process

or software of your controller. The USB drive
can also be used to make a backup of your
controller settings or to copy these settings
on another controller of the same type.

controller's enclosure. This prevents acci-
dental exposure to areas of high voltage.

the controller.

cover, use a fl at head screwdriver to loosen
the two locks and lift it.

behind the front door.

ply power to the controller.

MENT up- and down-arrow keys to start the

the fi les that are located at the root of

buffer of the controller on your USB drive. The
fi le will have a *.txt extension.
