Once you have connected a USB backup drive and verified that it works, you can enable
daily automatic backup using the SMART Control Panel.
About this task
If USB backup is enabled, the SMART Controller will mount the first USB storage
device it detects. For this reason, only one USB storage device, maximum, should be
connected to the SMART Controller for daily backup.
Procedure
-
Attach one USB storage device to one of SMART Controller's USB ports.
-
Open the SMART Control Panel and go to Maintenance.
-
Under Copy Data to External USB Drive, If Available,
select the types of files you wish to back up.
- CSV Files
- Bat
analysis results files.
- Log Files
- Text files that record status updates from the SMART Controller and
each microphone.
- WAV/W4V Files
- Full-spectrum audio recordings. The Microphone Setting Profile must have Output
WAV enabled to save WAV or W4V files to internal
storage.
- ZC Files
- Zero-crossing audio recordings. The Microphone Setting Profile must have Output
ZC enabled to save ZC files to internal
storage.
-
Choose whether to keep the USB drive mounted or not after backup is
complete.
We recommend disabling Keep Drive Mounted to avoid
corrupting the backup drive in the case of unexpected power loss. In this
configuration, the SMART Controller will mount the drive at the start of its
daily maintenance, then unmount it when it finishes USB backup.
