How do I perform a manual back-up of my Gateway?

HTML or Original Interface

You can perform a manual back-up of your Gateway data at any time by logging on to your Gateway device and navigating to Administration, Data Back-up and then Manual Back-up.

You will need to enter your password after which you will see the option to ‘click here to start a manual back-up up’. Once the back-up is complete, a message will be displayed on the Gateway homepage.


Note: On all RF500A and RF500AP Gateway devices, with version M8 (or newer) of the Software, back-ups are created automatically once per week, on a Monday morning.

The back-up file can then be downloaded and stored.
