• Restart - The unit is restarted without changing any of the settings. Use this method if 

the unit is not behaving as expected.

• Restore - The unit is restarted and most current settings are reset to factory default val-

ues. The settings that will not be reset are as follows:

• the boot protocol (DHCP or static)
• the static IP address
• the default router
• the  subnet  mask
• the system time

• Default - The default button should be used with caution. Pressing this will return all of 

the video server's settings to the factory default values (including the IP address)

Upgrade Server - See Upgrading the Firmware, on page 52.

Backup - To take a backup of all of the parameters, and any user-defined scripts, click this 

button. If necessary, it is then possible to return to a previous configuration if settings are 

changed and there is unexpected behavior.

Restore - click the Browse button to locate the saved backup file (see above) and then click 

the Restore button. The settings will be restored to the previous configuration.

Backup and Restore can only be used on the same unit running the same firmware. This feature is not 
intended for multi-configurations or for firmware upgrades.
