8.2. Restoring Saved Parameters
This Section describes the procedure for using your communications program
to send saved parameters to the CMS-6R4.
Notes:
• Parameters saved to an ASCII file can only be restored via the Text
Interface. This procedure cannot be performed via the Web Browser
Interface.
• Note that the "Restore Parameters" feature is only available when
the Supervisor Mode is active.
1. Start your communications program and access the CMS-6R4 command
mode via the Text Interface as described in Section 5.2.2.
2. If the Password Prompt is displayed, key in a password that permits
access to Supervisor Level commands, and then press [Enter].
3. Configure your communications program to upload an ASCII text file.
4. Upload the file with the saved parameters. If necessary, key in the file
name and directory path.
5. When the upload is complete, make certain to terminate the
communications program’s upload mode.
Note:
• The current On/Off status of each CMS-6R4 plug will not be saved
or restored.
• When the configuration file is sent to the CMS-6R4 via telnet, the
unit’s IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address will not be
changed until after you exit from command mode.
At this point, saved parameters should have been restored to the
CMS-6R4 unit. Check the configuration menus and status screens to make
certain that saved parameters have been correctly restored.
