Backup
Overview
At the time of replacing controller PCBs, the backup function enables to save data held in the PCB to migrate them to the new PCB.
As for the SRAM of the Main Controller 2, SramImg.bin can be backed up in one of the three ways: via SSI or Download Menu (HDD/USB device). If SramImg.bin has been backed up, when the Main Controller 2 is replaced with a new one and SramImg.bin is restored, the Main Controller 2 operates the same way as before. The setting values entered from service mode and the values set in Settings/Registration, etc. by the user are migrated.
In the case of a machine with an Encryption Board, backup/restoration using SST or Download Menu (USB device) is available. The machine needs to be started with the 2 and 8 keys with the HDD installed.
Backup via SST

Backup data | Downloaded/Uploaded file names
Backup data RAM | SramImg.bin(to be uploaded / downloaded)
MEAP applications | MeapBack.bin(to be uploaded / downloaded)
For investigation in Dev | Sublog.bin(Do not select this file)

Backup RAM holds the data from Backup RAM of the Main Controller PCB 2.
(Before replacing the Main Controller PCBs, DC Controller PCB, be sure to back up the data because Backup RAM holds the parts durable counter data and service mode setting data in the Main Controller.)
MeapBack holds MEAP applications and their data stored in HDD
Backup via Service mode

Backup data | Service mode
Backup of Reader Controller PCB | COPIER > FUNCTION > SYSTEM RSRAMBUP (Backup) COPIER > FUNCTION > SYSTEM RSRAMRES (Restore)
Backup of DC Controller PCB | COPIER > FUNCTION > SYSTEM DSRAMBUP (Backup) COPIER > FUNCTION > SYSTEM DSRAMRES (Restore)
Backup of Main controller PCB 2 | COPIER > FUNCTION > SYSTEM > DOWNLOAD > OK [5] BACKUP

Data is stored in HDD
NOTE:
Before replacing the Reader Controller PCBs, back up the data from Service mode. The backup data can be restored from Service mode when the PCBs are replaced. This enables to maintain the setting data including Service mode stored in the old Reader Controller PCB.
Before replacing the DC controller PCBs, back up the data from Service mode. The backup data can be restored from Service mode when the PCBs are replaced. This enables to maintain the setting data including Service mode stored in the old Controller PCB.
When there is an HDD Encryption Board, SRAM backup of Main Controller PCB2 is not possible with a service mode.Upload SramImg.bin beforehand and download SramImg.bin after exchange the Main Controller PCB2.
Main Controller PCB2 can succeed the setting data such as stored service modes when You carry out this activity.
Steps to Upload Data
CAUTION:
Do not select Sublog.bin.
The backup data can be downloaded only on the machine from which the data were uploaded.
This machine does not use SramRCON and SramDcon
Listed below are the sample steps to upload MeapBack.
1) Enter Download mode.
2) Connect the PC to the machine to start SST.
3) Select the model to be connected and the information file for individual download (“Single”). Check the network settings and click “Start”.
4) Click “Upload Data” button.
5) Select “MeapBack.bin” to click “Start” button.
6) Enter the file name to be saved and comments when necessary. Click “Save” button.
7) Click “OK” button.
Steps to Download Data
CAUTION:
The backup data can be downloaded to the machine from which the data were uploaded
Listed below were the sample steps to download MeapBack.
1) Enter Download mode
2) Connect the PC to the machine and start SST.
3) Select the model to be connected and “Single”. Check the network setting and click “Start” button.
4) Click “Download Data” button.
5) Select the data to be downloaded and click “Start” button.
6) When the data are successfully downloaded, click “OK” button.
7) Restart the machine
