Data Restoration

Many of the LUMO-series cards that can be installed in the LUMO frame are complex and have a
lot of data stored on-board related to their configuration and parameter values. The LUMO-CPU-
ETH controller provides a backup of this data, which can be restored to the card when needed.
This is valuable if the card is inadvertently reconfigured, or is replaced after failure with a new
card of the same type. The saving of the current data into the controller’s memory, and restoring
the data onto the LUMO-series card, can be done manually or automatically.

For manual operation:

Click the Restore Point button and view the Cards tab.

The tab show a list of the slots available in the frame, with a check box, name, and status box for
each.

•

The LUMO frame uses slots 1 to 9.

Click the check box to activate the Data Restore feature for the card in that slot,
