We recommend that you run Sprite Backup often to ensure that you
never lose any data due to an unforeseen hard reset. Because it’s
easy to forget to do, Sprite Backup offers scheduling automatic
backups as an advanced feature. To set this up, tap Start /
Programs / Sprite Backup. In the lower left corner tap Options /
Switch to Advanced Mode. Next, access the scheduling page by
tapping Options / Scheduled Backup / Change Scheduling. Here
you can set single, daily, or weekly automatic backups to run at a
particular time. Select the desired frequency and the backup time
and tap OK to set the schedule.
NOTE: While scheduled automatic backups will help protect you
from data loss, even a daily restore may not be enough in an
intensive work environment. When collecting a lot of data,
remember to backup often. If a hard reset occurs, any data collected
between the last backup and the hard reset will be lost.
If you experience a hard reset for any reason, you can easily restore
your data from your last backup. After a hard reset, the unit will
automatically prompt you to do a restore. To run restore manually,
tap Start / Programs / Sprite Backup / Restore Now. Once the
restore is complete, you will be prompted to do a soft reset. After
the reset, the unit is restored to its pre-hard reset state.
