17.14 How to Back up Chart Material
The ECDIS lets you keep a chart database identical both in the hard disk of the ECDIS and the hard disk of the
backup ECDIS. If you want to make a backup of chart material to backup ECDIS, open the Backup & Restore
dialog box and do the following:
1. Select file category in the Category list box.
2. Select Drive for backup of ECDIS at Drive in the Backup Device window.
3. Click the Backup button.

Note: To copy charts 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.
After the backup has been completed, the hard disk content of the backup ECDIS is identical with backup ECDIS.
However, the backup ECDIS doesn’t automatically start to use possible new material. To do this, open the Chart
menu and select System>Refresh Charts after backup from the menu.
