Auto-Sync Time Clock
NOTE: It is recommended to open the text version of the transaction file using MS
Word® or Excel rather than Notepad. The filename for the clock transaction
file will begin with the last 3 character pairs of the unique clock MAC
address (see Figure 6-1) and end in "_ATVSTrans.txt". The following is an
example of a typical text transaction file:

At the same time a Backup transaction text file is created, a Backup transaction
binary file is also created. This binary file can be used by the Restore utility to
restore the transaction database in a clock. This should only be necessary if the
clock's flash memory was reset. The following figure shows a Backup configuration
and transaction file for the same clock on an FTP Server. In the illustration, the first
file labeled "36-b0-4d_ATVSConfig.bin" is the configuration file for that clock. The
highlighted file (see Figure 4-25) called "ATVSConfig.bin" is the shared
configuration file for multiple clocks. This file can be used by the Auto-Sync Utility
to copy this configuration to multiple clocks.
