Backup and Restore using a micro-SD Card (BRX-only)You can create an image file that contains some or all of the contents of the PLC on a micro-SD card in a BRX PLC using the BACKUP - System Backup instruction, or using the Create PLC Image File utility in Do-more Designer, or initiating the backup from an HMI using a set pf setup registers. The image file created by the system backup process can be restored to a BRX PLC during a reboot using a different set of setup registers.
That process is also described in the Backup and Restore using micro-SD Card help topic.
Auto-Save ProjectA secondary copy of the Do-more Designer's project is automatically saved any time a 'Save Project to Disk' or 'Save Project As' operation is performed. These secondary copies are stored in a folder <Backup Folder>\<Auto-Save Folder>\<Project Name>\<Time Stamp>. The location where these files are stored can be viewed and changed through the Folder Settings menu selection.
