2.Click the Record Current Configuration button (see figure 50).

Note All configuration settings will be lost unless you click on the Record Cur- rent Configuration button before you power down or reset the T-DAC.

Backing up your configuration parameters

The 2616RC T-DAC provides Import/Export functions. These functions enable you to back up (export) and restore (import) your T-DAC’s configuration parameters against possible failure. Should your T-DAC ever need replacing, a previously saved copy of your (exported) configuration file can quickly be loaded (imported) into a replacement T-DAC.

Note Import/Export functions require superuser access privileges.

Note The parameters that will be exported are the power-up settings as they are stored in flash memory and may not be the current operating parameters. To ensure that you export the most current parameters, go to HOME, then under Operator Actions, click on the Record Cur- rent Configuration button.
