System Menu - IP Camera Maintenance - Settings Save/Load

In the Settings Save/Load sub-menu you can save settings from an IP camera as a backup if needed in the future. You can also load previously saved settings from the same camera.

 

This feature is typically used when you encounter problems that could be a result of incorrect setting in the camera. If this happens you can then load your previously saved settings from a time you know the camera was working correrctly.
