7.6 Backing up the transmitter configuration
Use this RRM option to make a backup copy of the configuration parameters in the transmitter
database. The backup file can be used to restore the transmitter configuration. It can also be
used for configuration of a transmitter in a similar application. Parameters in the saved file can
be uploaded directly to the new device. It is recommended to store the transmitter
configuration in a backup file.
The backup function is available from the Device menu in RRM.
To make a backup copy of the configuration parameters:
1. From the Device menu, choose the Backup Config to File option.
2. Browse to the desired directory.
3. Enter a name for the backup file and select the Save button, so the transmitter
configuration is stored. The backup file can be used at a later stage to restore an
accidentally changed configuration. The backup file can also be used to quickly
configure transmitters installed on similar tanks. To upload a backup configuration,
choose the Upload Config to Device option from the Device menu.
The backup file can be viewed using the Backup File Reader installed with the RRM
software:
4. The backup file can also be viewed as a text file in a word processing program such as
Notepad:
See “Configuration report” on page 147 for further information on viewing backup files.
