Uploading a Backup File to the Module
The Upload To Module section shows the last uploaded file name and timestamp. It
also allows you to upload a previously backed up file to the module from the client
computer. You can also upload a backup file downloaded from one FactoryTalk
Historian ME to quickly configure another module.
You can only have one backup configuration file on the module at a time. If you
upload an older backup file, it will overwrite any newer backup file.
