Tools Menu 
This menu provides database management features to maintain DLX900. This includes: 
•  Compact Database – The database may grow in size over time with adding and 
removing of customers. Click this option to clean the database and make it smaller. 
•  Repair Database – DLX900 will check the database for any errors and repair them 
where possible. 
•  Backup Database – The database should be regularly backed up and copied off the 
computer to a secure location. DLX900 will regularly request to perform a backup of 
the database when you exit the program. To change the frequency of the backup 
request, click Program – Setup – Program Setup – Backup Schedule. 
•  Restore Database – The database can be restored to a new computer if required. 
•  Import Customers – Specific customers can be recovered from an existing database 
backup file. This will read all customers or a specific customer (account number) into 
the current database. 
•  Export Customers – Specific customers can be saved to a new database. 
•  Diagnostics – Display real-time communication data between the panel and DLX900.
