Backup and restore application settings

You can backup and restore your application settings or reset your configuration to the default settings in the FP-I4C Web interface.

The backup file only contains application settings. System settings, such as network settings (IP and subnet address), language, date and time, are not saved.

NOTE

We strongly recommend that you password protect your backup file from unauthorized access.

To reset the hardware to factory settings, for example if you forgot your password, see the related article in our Knowledge Base.

If a hard reset is not possible, you must recover the main operating system or the data partition. See the related article in our Knowledge Base.

Go to the Backup/Restore page.
Enter a password to encrypt your backup file.
Be sure to memorize or write down your password and keep it in a safe place because the file can't be restored if you forget the password. If you do not enter a password, the file will not be protected.
To backup your settings, simply select Save.
The default file name is backup-<date>.i4csettings. This file will be saved to your PC.

To restore your settings, drag the desired backup file onto the drag and drop area or select the file with the + icon and then select the cloud icon.

Confirm or cancel the restore process. If the file is password-protected, you will be asked to enter the password.

To reset all application settings to the default settings, select Reset.

To reset the settings on individual pages, use the Reset button on each page.
