To use the Restore task:

2. Type in the Backup Filename field the name and fully qualified path to the backup file or click

backup file is stored, then select the file and click OK to return to the Backup task window.

3. Type in the Password field the password that you used to protect the backup file. Note that without

Use the Serial Devices task to specify what serial devices are connected to any serial pots that have been 
added to your appliance. Serial ports can be added by installing or connecting a serial communications 
device (such as a modem) to your appliance, or by connecting a USB-to-Serial-Port adapter to your 
appliance or to a USB hub that is connected to your appliance. 

As serial ports are detected by your appliance, entries corresponding to each serial port appear 
automatically in the Serial Devices task. Once a serial port is detected, use this task to specify the serial 
device that is connected to the serial port. You can also specify a label that will be used to uniquely 
identify the port to which each device is connected.

For example, if you install a PC Card modem in your appliance, a serial port will appear in the Serial 
Devices task window. You must then select from the Device Type Installed drop box beside the serial port 
the modem type that was installed in the PC Card slot.

When you have finished specifying devices using this task, click OK to save your changes. Click Cancel 
to close this window without saving any changes.

If a previously detected serial port is not presently detected by the appliance (for example, if the USB-to-
serial port connector has been disconnected from the appliance), a Remove button will appear beside the 
port. Click Remove to remove the port configuration.

Use the SMS task to view or change the SMS (Short Messaging Service) settings used by your appliance. 
These settings must be configured correctly for the Send Wireless SMS Message alert action (see 
“Creating a Send Wireless SMS Message Alert Action” on page 173) to function properly.

This task will be available only if a device that features one or more serial ports, 
such as a PC Card modem or a USB-to-Serial-Port adapter, has been installed in 
or connected to your appliance. 

This task will be available only if a modem that supports SMS messaging has 
been installed in and configured for use with your appliance.
