SECURITY & BACKUPS

There are no known problems with passing the netBook through

airport security machines and other X-rays.

There are several things that you can do to secure your files

against other hazards. You can make your files “read-only”to

avoid accidental deletion; back up your files regularly in case they

get lost; set passwords to protect information from prying eyes

and enter contact information so that your netBook can be

returned to you if you lose it.

Note: It isn’t possible for anyone to copy information from or to

your machine using Infrared, unless they are able to access its

Infrared ‘Send’ and ‘Receive’ commands.

Backing up to a PC

You can use PsiWin to back up individual files or folders, the

netBook’s entire Internal disk, or files on Memory disks to the PC.

See the PsiWin on-line help for details.

Backing up to Memory Disks

You can back up individual files, individual folders or groups of

files and folders to a Memory Disk. To back up the files and

folders, copy them from the internal disk to a Memory Disk using

the Copy and Paste commands in the system screen.

1. Select the files and folders you want to back up, then select

the Copy command from the Edit menu.

2. Set the current disk to be D (i.e. the Memory disk), and

select the folder you want to use for the backup on disk D.

3. Select the Paste command from the Edit menu.

To restore the files and folders on a Memory Disk to your

netBook, copy them from the Memory Disk to the Internal disk

in the same way as backing up. This time, set the current disk to

D to select the files on the Memory disk, then change it to C to

paste the copied files to the Internal disk.
