There are two methods that can be used to change the default settings on G4 brewers. They can be programmed at the brewer by
the touch screen universal control module (UCM) or the settings can be changed using the USB (Universal Serial Bus) data port
on the side of the brewer. Using the USB connection and a flash memory data storage device will easily reprogram the settings
simply by copying data. 
The	flash	drive	can	upload	or	download	the	entire	setting	from	one	G4	brewer,	into	another	G4	brewer.	This	eliminates	the	need	to	
walk through the usual steps in reprogramming that would be required when you use the touch screen to make a change. This is
an advantage for a service technician when standardizing the program settings on multiple G4 brewers.
Use	a	USB	drive	with	USB	2.0	support	and	a	type-A	USB	connection.	Storage	capacity	should	
be	2	GB	minimum.
IMPORTANT: The	flash	drive	must	be	completely	blank.	Before	starting,	please	erase	any	files	
that may be in the USB drive.
SOFTWARE INFORMATION TRANSFER
UPLOAD TO USB
1.		 Make	sure	the	brewer	is	on.	Determine	that	the	G4	brewer	you	wish	to	copy	is	properly	programmed	for	your	desired	settings.	
2.		 Connect	an	empty	flash	drive	into	the	USB	port	on	the	brewer.	The	UCM	on	the	brewer	will	upload	all	of	the	particular	setup	
data onto the flash drive. The yellow LED on top of the touch screen will light indicating that data is transferring. This will only
take a second to complete.
DOWNLOAD TO BREWER
1.		 Select	the	brewer	you	wish	to	make	the	program	changes	on.	The	brewer	should	be	on.	
2.		 Plug	the	loaded	flash	drive	into	the	USB	port	on	the	brewer.	The	data	copied	from	the	first	G4	brewer	will	automatically	down-
load, overwriting all the settings that were on the second brewer.
3.	 The	red	LED	on	the	UCM	will	indicate	that	the	download	is	in	process.	This	will	only	take	a	second.
4.	 Once	the	download	is	complete,	the	UCM	will	reboot	in	order	for	the	changes	to	take	effect.	
5.	 Remove	the	flash	drive.	The	download	is	complete.	The	data	on	the	flash	drive	can	be	downloaded	into	as	many	G4	brewers	
as needed.
USB – Easy Programming
This screen will be presented whenever the USB flash is inserted.
The UCM will always create a backup on the USB flash drive
before downloading settings/recipes or screensaver.
Case 1
Settings/recipes file present, screensaver not present. User
has selected ‘Download from USB’ for settings/recipes file.
Case 2
As above, but user has selected ‘Upload to USB’ for settings/
recipes file. With this action, the overwrite warning appears.
