Save and Load System Setup
You can easily make a backup of the entire System Setup to the CF card. This
backup will include all of your settings on the XF Camera, your Custom Setups,
as well as all of the settings on the IQ back.
This feature makes it easy to quickly load your preferred settings if you
frequently share the XF Camera System with other photographers. It is also a
convenient way to quickly be able to reuse all of your settings if you often rent
an XF Camera System.
The backup file is called XFSystem.set and is stored at the root of the CF card.
From there, it can be copied to your computer for further backup or sharing.
Note that the file will get erased if you format the CF card.
Save System Setup to CF Card
The backup of the System Setup is done from the IQ back. Select Menu >
System Setup > Save To CF, and press the green check mark to accept. The
system will now confirm that the System Setup of both the IQ back and XF
Camera has been saved to the CF card. If the XF Camera Body is not attached
to the back, only the IQ settings will be stored.
Load System Setup from CF Card
To load your saved System Setup, select Menu > System Setup > Load from
CF, and press the green check mark to accept. You will need to turn the
system o and back on before all the changes are applied. If there is no valid
backup file present on the CF card, you will get a warning..
Restore to Default
You can easily restore all of the settings to the default values. This is done
from the IQ back. Select Menu > System Setup > Restore to Default. As a
convenient feature, you have the option to choose whether the current
copyright information, splash and background screens, custom white balance
values and WiFi settings should be reset or kept during the restore. Select only
those you want to reset to default values, and press the green check mark to
accept. This feature makes sure that you do not have to reenter some common
settings each time you need to restore the system to default settings.
NOTE:
Settings like Focus Trim and HyperFocal focus values are stored as part of the System
Setup backup and will be applied if you save and load the System Setup on the same
XF Camera Body. However, they will not be applied if you load the System Setup onto a
dierent XF Camera. The reason for this is that Focus Trim and HyperFocal focus values
have to be setup individually for each camera system in order to work correctly.
