A.3 Restoring a set of key data
C AUTION : If a backup file has been manually changed, it will no longer be possible to restore it in the pro-
jector!
Different levels of restore
Different situations lead to different levels of restore:
• restore data to a used PMP which already holds data and settings
• restore data to a new PMP which has no data and settings yet
When restoring to a new PMP, the Projector Support tool automatically manages the full restore. This means that the operator can
not interact. The serial number and history are restored 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, runtimes, etc. will not be overwritten
• option keys will not be blanked or overwritten
• some files will be merged: newly added data (e.g. custom geometry files) will not be lost
• some settings (e.g. automatic shutdown, warning messages ON/OFF) will not be overwritten
• etc.
How to restore the key data in a used PMP?
It is assumed that communication with the projector has been established through Projector Support and that an original backup file
is available (zip format).
