Different levels of restore
Different situations lead to different levels of restore:

• restore data to a new PMP which has no da ta and settings yet
When restoring to a new PM P, the Projector S upport tool automatically ma nages the full restore. This means that the operator c an
not interact. The serial number and history are r estored as well.
When restoring to a used PMP, a selection of the files to be restored can be made. The Projector Support tool however manages
the files which are critical:
• serial number, ru ntimes, etc. will n ot be overwritten
• option keys will not be blanked or overwritten
•somefiles will be merged: newly added data (e.g. custom geometry files) will not be lost
• some settings (e.g. automatic shutdown, warning messages ON/O FF) will not be overwritten
•etc.
