System Menu - Maintenance - Settings Save/Load

In the Settings Save/Load sub-menu you can save the recorder's current settings as a backup or to load onto another Zip recorder. You can also load previously saved settings from the same recorder or another Zip recorder.

 

This feature is typically used when you have multiple recorders on the same site or over multiple sites. It allows you to configure one recorder as required and then load those settings onto your other recorders rather than having to repeat the setup process again and again.
