To Backup the Switcher Hard Drive

The backup requires a Linux-compatible USB storage device with at least 25GB of available space. If the drive is not Linux-compatible, you will be prompted to format the drive.
  1. Insert the USB drive into the control panel.
  2. Press HOME > Disk > More > System Backup.
  3. Select how the backup handles existing backup files on the USB.
    • Clean Up – any backup files on the USB that are not used by the switcher are deleted. All other backup files are replaced with the new backup.
    • Don't Clean Up – any backup files on the USB that are not used by the switcher are not deleted. All other backup files are replaced with the new backup.
  4. If you selected Clean Up, press Yes to confirm the deletion of the files.
  5. Press Continue.

    The progress of the backup is shown at the top of the System Info page from the web interface.

    Tip: Press Abort Backup to stop the backup at any time. The backup can be started again from where it left off.
