You can check the settings changed on the setting screen, and then save them as a setting file (format: .sav) on your PC. L The saved file (.sav) is not usable on devices other than the IP1100CV. L You can use the saved file as a backup if the settings are lost or damaged.
MAINTENANCE Restoring the saved settings Management > Settings Backup/Restore You can restore a previously saved setting file in the previous page to the IP1100CV. NOTE: DO NOT write the saved file to any other devices. Open the Settings Backup/Restore screen.
Resetting to the factory defaults When you reconfigure your network, and so on, you can reset the IP1100CV to the factory defaults. There are two ways to reset to the factory defaults. Choose an appropriate way, according to your situation.
Click • The Controller restarts to restore the settings. It may take several minutes to completely reboots. CAUTION: DO NOT turn OFF both the IP1100CV and the PC while the IP1100CV is restoring or rebooting. After the Controller has completely rebooted, click “[Back]” (the red text on the screen) to return to the setting screen.
You can update the firmware of the IP1100CV in 4 ways. • Manual update: In the case that the Controller cannot do the automatic update, first download the latest firmware from the Icom website, and then manually load the saved firmware. (p. 3-7) • Online update: Automatically updates the firmware through the Internet.
Before updating the firmware, save the current setting into a file. NOTE: Some settings may be returned to their defaults after the firmware update. Refer to the Icom website for details. TIP: In order to protect the Controller from maintenance by unknown users, Icom recommends restricting access to the setting screen during normal use.
2 Confirm Click <Update Firmware>. • The Controller starts accessing the Icom server to download the updates. L Depending on the firmware version, the Controller may require that you initialize the settings. Before the Online update, we recommend that you save your Controller settings for a backup.
MAINTENANCE Updating the firmware Management > Firmware Update ■ Online update with the <UPDATE> button You can check whether a new firmware version is available or not by pushing the <UPDATE> button on the front panel of the Controller. The [MSG] indicator on the front panel of the Controller lights green if the firmware is ready for an online update.
• The source data is damaged. • The source data is not for the IP1100CV. • When both the firmware and settings for the IP1100CV are saved in the USB flash drive, the firmware will be updated after the settings data is loaded.
The files that are saved on a USB flash drive for the automatic restore function must be named as follows: • Settings file: savedata.sav L Only the settings file that is saved on the IP1100CV setting screen can be used for the Automatic Restore function. (Management > Settings Backup > Settings Backup) • Firmware: firmware.dat...
■ Managing 2 or more IP1100CVs with a USB flash drive You can backup or restore the setting files for 2 or more IP1100CVs by making a separate folder for each IP1100CV. Before inserting the USB flash drive into the IP1100CV, make folders that are named the same as the MAC address for the LAN of the IP1100CVs that you want to manage with the drive.
MAINTENANCE Restoring the settings from the USB flash drive Management > Settings Backup/Restore You can copy a Controller settings to use to clone another gateway, with a USB flash drive. First, save the settings data of that you want to copy from onto the USB flash drive, then load the settings to another Controller.
