Backup and Restore
The Backup and Restore application lets you copy the current system image on
the terminal, then restore that image to the same terminal or other terminals.
This function is useful if you want to clone a system image to multiple
terminals.
A typical backup includes the following:
•File system
• Firmware image
•Windows registry
• Optional user configuration data
You can include user configuration data in the backup by selecting the
Advanced Network & Display Settings checkbox in the Backup & Restore
dialog box.

Follow these steps to perform a backup.
1. Insert a USB drive or SD card into the appropriate slot on the terminal.
2. In the control panel, double-click the Backup & Restore icon.
3. Click browse ... on the Backup tab.
TIP You can back up a system image to a USB drive or SD card. Rockwell
Automation recommends using a USB drive or SD card with a minimum of
1 GB of available space. For applications with a large file system, use a
minimum of 2 GB of available space.
