OPERATION ORBAN MODEL 9400
To save a user preset you have created:
A) Select SAVE PRESET AS from the FILE menu to bring up the SAVE AS Dialog Box.
The current preset name will appear in the File Name field.
B) Click in the field, and edit it.
C) Click S
AVE to save the preset to the 9400 as a User Preset.
If you have made edits to a previously existing user preset, you can select
S
AVE PRESET from the FILE menu to overwrite the pre-existing user preset
automatically.
To back up User Presets, system files, and automation files onto
your computer’s hard drive:
A) Select BACKUP TO PC from the FILE Menu.
B) Click OK.
PC Remote will offer three options:
 Save User Presets, system files, and automation in plain text.
This allows the presets and files to be read with any text editor program
and to be readily exchanged between Optimod users.
 Save User Presets, system files, and automation files using the session pass-
code to encrypt them.
 Save User Presets, system files, and automation files using the password of
your choice to encrypt them.
The encryption options prevent archived presets, system files, and auto-
mation files from being restored if the user does not have the password
used for the encryption. There is no “back door” — Orban cannot help
you to decrypt a preset whose password is unknown.
All User Preset, system, and automation files are copied from your Opti-
mod’s internal memory to a folder called “backup” on your PC. This
folder is a subfolder of the folder named the same as the alias of the Op-
timod that you are backing up.
This folder name (“backup”) and location are hard-coded into the soft-
ware. If you wish to move the backup files somewhere else later, use a
file manager (like Explorer) on your computer.
To make more than one backup archive, rename the current backup
folder (for example, to “Backup1”). 9400 PC Remote will create a new
backup folder the next time you do a backup, leaving your renamed
backup folder untouched. Later, you will be able to restore from any
folder — the Restore dialog box allows you to choose the folder contain-
ing the files to be restored
If you attempt to back up a preset with the same name as a preset exist-
ing in the Backup folder, but with a different date, 9400 PC Remote will
warn you and will allow you to overwrite the preset in the Backup folder
