Backing Up System Data

Use this procedure to copy system data files from the hard disk to diskettes. You
can also use this procedure to copy trace log information for service
representatives to use in troubleshooting software problems.

Backup protects the system files on your hard disk by making copies of the files on
a diskette that you can restore to the hard disk. The stored data from the disk
includes:

S patient sample data
S quality control data
S calibration, diagnostic, and maintenance data
S setup data
S workload statistics and cycle counts

Establish a backup schedule that meets your laboratory’s data requirements. The
frequency with which you backup data files should correspond to the amount of
data you want to restore in case of a data loss. For example, if you want to be able
to restore all your patient sample data from the previous day, then backup patient
data every day. Bayer Diagnostics recommends that you backup patient data every
day.

NOTE:

Bayer Diagnostics recommends that you backup system data files each

time you change system setup options and QC files.

You can restore backed up data to the hard disk using the procedure in Restoring
System Data
