• Disable check box — This option disables the DataSafe feature for that slot.
• Force button — If any slots have a software version mismatch, the Force button allows
the user to load the current DataSafe data to the cards and overwrites the frame-stored
data with the card’s current settings. This button is enabled only if a software version
incompatibility exists. For more information on forcing DashBoard to update cards with
software incompatibilities, refer to the section “Forcing DataSafe Updates” on
page 5-7.
• Mask Warning check box — The Network Controller card displays a warning in the
Data Safe State field of the Hardware tab if any of the card slots have an error. For
example, if a card is installed that does not match the last saved data for that slot. If the
check box is selected, no warnings are displayed in DashBoard. The default setting is to
display warnings and errors.

• Restore Configuration — Selecting this option displays the Restore
Configuration Wizard from which you can restore from a DataSafe file for the specific
card(s) on your DashBoard host machine. For more information on recalling
configurations from a file, refer to the section “Restoring Configurations to Devices”
on page 5-5.
