Backup

(Home > Manage > Service > Backup)
The scanner creates an automatic backup of the scanner settings and saves it to
the inserted SD card. This backup will automatically be updated with the current
scanner settings each time you start a scan. It includes the current scan profiles,
scanning parameters, operators, wallpapers and general settings.
Additionally, you can also create manual backups of certain scanner settings.
This manual backup option saves scanner parameters, as well as operators, scan
profiles but also wallpapers to the SD card.
The manual backup option creates snapshots of this scanner data and helps you to
protect it from accidental loss if your scanner's hardware or storage media fails. It
creates a duplicate copy of your data on your SD card; you can then archive the
data on another storage device or modify it with SCENE and transfer the
modified data back to your scanner.
