Saving Configuration Files and
Databases

Certain files may take extended periods of time to save
directly from a PC to the

920i

. For fastest save times,

using a Flash drive is recommended.

Note

When saving a configuration file, the
indicator will attempt to save to a folder
matching its UID number (the default

UID# is 1). If no such folder is found, the file will be saved
to the drive’s root directory and overwrite any existing files
matching its UID# followed by the .920 file extension i.e.,
1.920i.

Important

When the

920i

saves a database, it will use the

alias name and a .db file extension.

1. Connect the flash drive to the

920i

’s type-A

USB port.

2. With the indicator in weigh mode, press the

USB

softkey.

Section 1.3 on page 4 and
Figure 3-13 on
page 44

3. Select Save Configuration (*.920) or Save All

Databases (*.db) and press

ENTER
