Using a USB memory stick
Amemory stick can be inserted into the RPC2 module's USBport using a Type Afemale to micro A/B male adaptor. You
can use a memory stick to facilitate the initial setup of networking, protocol and device configurations.
Each RPC2 module's .csv configuration file is uniquely saved according to its MACID. To facilitate mass configuration,
multiple .csv files can be saved to the memory stick and then edited in a spreadsheet program before being loaded back
into the respective module.
To back up a configuration to a USBmemory stick:
1. Insert a memory stick that does not already contain the module's unique configuration file into the module's
USB port.
2. After a single beep, the module begins to save the configuration file to the memory stick.
3. After three consecutive beeps, the backup is complete and the memory stick is shut down for safe removal.
4. Remove the memory stick and repeat as desired for additional modules.
To restore a configuration from a USBmemory stick:
1. Insert a memory stick that contains the module's unique configuration file into the module's USBport.
2. After five consecutive beeps, the restoration begins. To abort the restoration, remove the memory stick before
the fifth beep.
3. After three consecutive beeps, the restoration is complete and the memory stick is shut down for safe removal.
The configuration file is automatically deleted from the memory stick after restoration, and the module reboots
for the new configuration to take affect.
NOTE: Wait a few minutes after the reboot completes to access to the unit.
