17.8 How to Move a File to Planning or Navigation
Station
If there are two ECDIS workstations connected via a LAN, files can be moved from one workstation to another.
Note: The intention of the Backup function is to make a backup copy of a route, user chart, etc. to a backup
medium. If you want to copy charts, routes, user charts, etc. between ECDIS workstations, it is recommended that
you use the Restore function instead of Backup. For use of Backup, see the illustration below for when it is possible
to use the Backup function.
