Backing Up a Program
With the BACKUP softkey, you can make backup copies of programs
that you have already saved on MILLPWR 's internal memory. You
should keep backup copies on hand in case a program is accidentally
deleted or modified, or you can't recover the original programs for
any other reason.
To back up a program:
• From the PGM screen, press the PROGRAM FUNCTIONS softkey,
then select the directory containing the program(s) you want to back
up (refer to Selecting a Directory).
• Now press the BACKUP softkey. The following softkey options should appear:
• Indicate where you want to back up your program(s): onto a 3 1 /
2
" floppy disk (press the
USE FLOPPY softkey) or onto your PC (press the REMOTE STORAGE softkey).
• Determine which program(s) you want to back up.
To back up all of your programs in the directory:
• Press the ALL PROGRAMS softkey. MILLPWR will store a backup copy
of each program in the directory you've selected.
To back up only one or just a few programs:
• Press the SELECT PROGRAMS softkey.
• Highlight each program you want to back up press the SELECT PROGRAM softkey
again. An arrow will appear beside each program name you've selected.
It's best to save
the final version
of a program

a backup copy.
Otherwise,
you'll have to
back up the
program again
after you've
made any
changes.
