Backing Up the Instrument Database
If you wish to transfer existing balance jobs or recordings to a PC for
backup purposes, you can make a local copy of the instrument
database using the vbXManager application. This instrument
database can then be stored and returned to the instrument at a later
time for review.
Copy Database from the Instrument
• Connect the instrument to the PC using the supplied USB
cable, or any Ethernet cable.
• Start the vbXManager application.
• Double-click your instrument (identifiable by its serial
number) in the new window. The instrument properties
window will open.
• Click the Tasks tab then the Copy button in the Copy
Database area. Browse to the location you wish to copy the
database to. Enter a name for the file in the File name: field
and click the Save button. A copy of the instrument database
will be saved to the chosen location with a '.pbd' file
extension.
