Settings Tools
Backup - Click this button to export the system settings to a file. You will be
asked to name the backup set. This ONLY backs up the DVR Client Settings, not the
recording data, Windows settings, or any other information. Useful for taking a system
settings backup in case of a system failure or just before testing new settings.
Restore - Click this button to restore a previously exported settings file. You will
select from a list of previous backups.
Reset - This button wipes all settings of the Client software. This should not be
done unless a problem needs troubleshooting and wiping all settings is necessary to attempt
to repair the system. ALL Client settings, including ALL user settings, schedules, etc, will be
lost. Only previously taken backups can be restored, or a complete manual re-setup of the
server is required.
(Clients connected to an Enterprise Manager are affected very little by this button, since
they download all User Rights, Servers, and Camera Groups from the Enterprise
Management Server.)
The Client Settings are stored under the Client's installation directory, usually at C:\Program
Files\Airship\ Client\Settings\Manual\.
