Backup and Restore

The Backup and Restore application lets you back up the current system image
on the HMI terminal, then restore that image to the same terminal, or clone it to
other terminals. This function is intended for OEMs who want to back up a
terminal image, then clone or copy that same image to multiple terminals.

A typical backup includes the following:

File system
Firmware image
Windows registry

Additional user configuration data is included in the backup if you check
Advanced Network & Display Settings.

You can back up the terminal image to a file on a USB flash drive or SD card.

Follow these steps to perform a backup.

1. Insert a USB flash drive or SD memory card into the appropriate slot of the terminal.

2. In the control panel, double-click the

Backup & Restore icon.

3. Click the browse ... button on the

Backup tab.

4. Select the location for the back-up file:

USB Storage if using a USB flash drive
Storage Card2 if using an SD card
Target folder if backing up to terminal

5. Type a name for the back-up file.

All back-up files have the .pvb file type.
