10.8.1.2 XML restore
Note
Frequent use of XML restore can reduce the working life of the reader
With each XML restore, there are write operations to the flash memory. If the XML restore
function is used frequently, this can reduce the working life of the reader.
Note
When the "remote client" IP address should not be imported
The "remote client" IP address is assigned to the TCP settings. If you do not want this IP
address to be imported, the import of the TCP settings for XML restore must be disabled.
