Backing up Windows CE RAM
Data
The Windows CE RAM data stores such items as collected/saved
data, registry information, and installed programs. Performing a
regular backup of this data ensures efficient and continued use of the
GMS-2. RAM data will be lost in the following situations:
• Losing battery power through draining the battery or removing
the battery.
• Performing a hardware reset.
• Upgrading the operating system.
When backing up RAM data, data is stored on the internal flash
memory in a “Backup” directory.
1. On the main screen of the GMS-2, tap StartSettingsControl
PanelSystemBackup.
2. On the RAM Backup tab, tap RAM data backup. The backup to
the Flash memory will begin.
• If desired, turn on Ram data will be backed up before
suspension to automatically back up RAM data as the GMS-
2 shuts down.
•Leave Data restoration after hard reset on to recover data
after a hardware reset. Data is restored after a hard reset and
power cycle.
If desired, turn it off (data will not be restored).
3. When the backup completes, tap OK.
Note the following conditions of a backup and restoration cycle:
• If the Flash memory does not have enough space to store a RAM
backup, the backup will be incomplete.
• After upgrading the OS, some items may not be fully restored.
The Windows CE RAM has a separate backup,
rechargeable battery. This battery powers the RAM
for five minutes after removing the primary battery.
