Teac MX-2424 v1.04 - Manual (Page 63)

Backing Up MX-OS to a Computer
It may be desirable to save the version of MX-OS that is currently installed in the MX-2424 to a computer
to ensure that version is safely archived if it is ever needed again. With the MX-2424 connected to a Mac
or PC via 100Mb Ethernet the steps below will save the version of MX-OS in the MX-2424 to the
computer.
1. Launch the ViewNet application.
2. From the ViewNet Network Screen highlight the MX-2424 that has the version of MX-OS to be saved
or make it active in the Edit Screen by clicking on its Connection button as shown below. The button
will turn blue and the MX-2424 will appear in the Edit Screen.
3. Select Backup MX Software from the Machine Menu.
4. Determine a location on the computer to save the MX-OS file from the MX-2424. It may be
convenient to create a folder to contain new versions of MX-OS as they are released. Then inside that
folder each version could have its own folder to contain the MX-OS file and any associated
documentation. (NOTE: This manual assumes the user has a working knowledge of the Mac OS
and/or Windows.)
5. Type in a file name for the MX-OS file. Using the version number of the MX-OS file is a good way to
keep track of the MX-OS versions stored on your computer. The version of MX-OS in the MX-2424
can be seen in Menu 990.
6. Click SAVE – in about 20 seconds a confirmation will appear that the MX-OS backup was successful.
