Option Information
Backup files available on the USB stick
Name of a backup data package:
IPCUpdate_<Processor type>_<Version>
• Date/time formats:
• Date = YYYYMMDD
• Version=Vx.x.x.xxx
Example:
IPCUpdate_PM_V2.0.0.302
IPCBackup_<Prefix>_<Serial number>_<Date>_<Time>
• Date/time formats:
• Date = YYYYMMDD
• Time = HHMMSS
Example:
IPCBackup_HMI_00E04B0811AF_20060101_003008
• Add to USB stick Opens a dialog for selecting a folder. An available backup can be selected and
added to the USB stick.
• Delete from USB stick Deletes the selected backup file from the USB stick.
• Save to disk Opens a dialog for selecting a folder. Copies the selected backup file from the
USB stick to the hard disk.
Automatic behaviour when IPC is started with the connected USB stick
• No action
When the USB stick is inserted, the industrial PC boots up normally without
making a backup or restore.
• Display selection dialog (only for
IPCs with display)
When the USB stick is inserted, the industrial PC provides a selection dialog
via which the backup or restore can be selected.
• Record new backup When booting with the USB stick inserted, a backup is automatically written
to the USB stick. This is especially sensible for systems without display.
• Restore selected backup (without
question)
When booting with the USB stick inserted, a restore is automatically
(without a selection dialog) written from the USB stick to the industrial PC.
This is especially sensible for systems without display.
Tip!
Leave the USB stick connected to the industrial PC to ensure that a backup is made every time the IPC boots up. Thus,
the last data bases are always available.
Record backup
• Prefix
Freely configurable addition for the backup name.
Tip: Use a name which can be assigned clearly later.
• Max. no. of backups Maximum number of backups which may be saved on the USB stick during
the automatic backup.
The maximum number in »IPC Backup & Restore« is 100! If the maximum
number of backups is reached on the USB stick, the oldest backup will be
overwritten.
This value is only evaluated if "Record new backup" is selected.
