10.2.8 Data safety backup. Backup - Restore
This option may be used to make a backup copy of the data of the MTB folder in order
to be able to restore this configuration later on if necessary. The backup is saved in
a single file.
Both the folder being backed up and the file name it is saved in may be configured.
When not indicated otherwise, it makes a backup of the "MTB" folder and it saves
it in the mtb.r file in unit –A:–.
Configuring backup options
The backup options may be defined using the "Backup options" softkey. As backup
options, it is possible to define both the folder being backed up and the name of the
file containing the data. By default, it makes a backup of the "MTB" folder and it saves
it in the mtb.r file in unit –A:–.
The CNC saves the defined options in a file called backup.ini. If this file does not exist
when making or restoring a backup, the default values will be used.
Making a data backup
The backup is made using the "automatic backup" softkey. Pressing this softkey
makes a safety copy of the data of the indicated folder. The data is saved in the
selected file.
When not indicated otherwise or if the backup.ini file does not exist, it will make a
backup of the "MTB" folder and will save it in the mtb.r file in unit –A:–
Restoring data from a backup file
Backup data is restored using the "Restore backup" softkey. Pressing this key copes
the data from the indicated file to its original folder; i. E. To the folder that was backed
up. If this folder does not exist, it creates it and goes on with the operation.
If the files being restored already exist, they will be overwritten; i.e. the ones in the
folder will be replaced by the ones in the backup.
The name of the file from which the backup is restored is defined in the backup.ini
file. If this file does not exist, it proceeds as follows:
1. It looks for the mtb.r file in unit –A:– and it restores it.
2. If this file does not exist, it restores the first backup file (extension –r–) of unit –A:–
3. If there is no backup file, it shows the relevant error message.
