Managing Your Local Databases

Each client workstation running the software contains a local database that
records the information that you enter about your units. If you have multiple
client workstations, you may wish to configure one station and then save a copy
of this database and load it into the other stations to avoid having to
reconfigure each station. You might also wish to export the database for use in
another application.

Saving a Database

The RCS software allows you to save a copy of the local database. The saved
database can then be loaded back to the same computer where it was created, or
it can be loaded onto another client workstation. The saved database is
compressed into a single Zip file.

While the database is being saved, no other activity is allowed, and all other
windows must be closed. If other windows are open, a message will appear
prompting you to either continue and close all open windows or quit and cancel
the database save process.

To save a database:

1

Select File - Database - Save from the RCS Explorer menu. The Database
Save
dialog box appears.

2

Select a database to save.

3

Type a file name and browse to a location to save the file.

4

Click Save. A progress bar appears during the save. When finished, a
message appears indicating that the save was successful and you are returned
to the main window.
