Save and Restore Configuration
To use the Save Configuration or Restore Configuration features you must first have a computer with a terminal emulation
program (i.e. HyperTerminal) attached to the User Station using the Null Modem cable included with your PRIMUX. Also, the
PRIMUX-UZR must be in Stand-Alone mode (page 34).
1. Attach the DINT-6-FF 9-pin serial null modem cable (supplied) between the serial port on the computer and the SERIAL port on
the PRIMUX.

2. Open the terminal emulation program (HyperTerminal) on the computer.
3. Connect to the User Station through the proper COM port using the following settings: 9600,8,n,1, no flow control.
To Save the Configuration:
With a connection made to the PRIMUX, press < S > from the computer with the OSD menu to select “Save Configuration”.
From the terminal window, go to the Transfer Menu, select Receive, and decide where to save the configuration file on the PC
(using Xmodem protocol) and then determine what to name the configuration file. While the file is being saved, the terminal will
display a status page and the message (in the OSD screen) “Saving Configuration” will be displayed. When finished, the
message “Configuration Saved” will be displayed.
To Restore the Configuration:
With a connection made to the PRIMUX, press < R > from the computer with the OSD menu to select “Restore Configuration”.
From the terminal window, go to the Transfer Menu, select Send (using Xmodem protocol), and browse to the saved configuration
file on the PC. While the file is being restored, the message “Restoring Configuration” will be displayed. When finished, the
message “Configuration Restored” will be displayed.
This feature works in Stand-Alone mode only (page 34)
