copying the data to the USB drive, notice that the backup date is listed as an available restore
point within the Restore option box.
5. Unplug the drive from the port, and then turn the dial back to the RUN position.
Note: You can leave the backup data on the USB drive until you need it for a restore.
However, if you need the USB drive for another purpose, you can also copy the data to a
computer. Just make sure that you maintain the same folder structure, folder names, and
filenames, so you can copy it back to the USB drive if you need to use it to restore your data.
Restoring Your System
If your controller has lost its programming data, you can restore it from a backup that you
previously made.
1. Plug the USB drive that has the backup data on it into the USB port on the faceplate of the
controller.
2. Turn the dial to the Advanced position.
3. Press the Next button to move to the Data Management (USB Storage) option, and then
press the Enter button. The USB Data screen
displays. When the controller finds the
backup data on the USB drive, the backup
date is listed as an available restore point
within the Restore option box.
4. Press the Next button to highlight the
Restore option, and then press the Enter
button. The controller replaces the current
programming with the copy from the USB
drive.
Note: If a USB drive has multiple backup files
for this controller, the number of files is indicated inside the brackets within the Restore
option box. For example, [1/3] means that the USB drive has 3 backup files and you have
selected the first of those 3 files with the date that displays in the box. If you want to use a
different backup file for the restore, press the + or – button to display a different file number
and date.
5. When the controller finishes copying the data from the USB drive, unplug the drive from the
port, and then turn the dial back to the RUN position.
Exporting Log Files
The BaseStation 3200 saves up to two years of log files. The controller records all programming
changes, water times, moisture levels, and other internal information in these files. The daily files
are saved in folders by month. When you perform an export, all of the files are copied to the USB
drive in the controller serial number folder, and in a subfolder called Export.
Note: These files may be requested by Baseline Support.
1. Plug a USB drive into the USB port on the faceplate of the controller.
WARNING! To avoid damaging the connector pins, gently push the drive into the port.
