Backing up and restoring RSLinx Classic configurations

RSLinx, and then click RSLinx Classic Backup Restore Utility.
2. In the RSLinx Classic Backup/Restore tool, click Backup.
3. Select a folder for the backup file, type a file name, and then click Save.
4. In Windows Explorer, copy the backup file, and then paste it into a location on the
data server production computer.
5. On the production computer, click Start > All Programs > Rockwell Software >
RSLinx, and then click RSLinx Classic Backup Restore Utility.
6. In the RSLinx Classic Backup/Restore tool, click Restore.
7. Find and select the backup file you just moved, and then click Open.
You can also restore RSLinx Classic configuration files from the Wizard Completed window of
