8 – System Setup
The BaseStation 1000 has a number of features that enable you to set up and maintain the
controller. You can back up your system with a USB drive, and then you can use those backup files
to restore your system if it ever goes down. You can also ensure that your controller has the most
current firmware code with a download from the Baseline web site or from BaseManager.
