Backup Management

This page allows you to manage system backups on your EYE+ XTD. All backup operations require a USB drive connected to your EYE+ XTD Controller.

You can perform the following actions:

1. Create a new backup and save it to the connected USB drive.

2. Restore a previously created backup from the USB drive.

3. Delete existing backups stored on the USB drive.

4. Download a backup from the USB drive to your local computer.

Create a Backup

This interface allows you to create a complete system backup. The backup includes your recipes and all relevant configuration settings, such as:

• Recipes list

• Communication Configuration

• Camera Configuration

• Lighting Settings

• Hand-Eye Calibration

• Secure Connection and User Access Control

To create a backup:

1. Connect a USB drive to one of the two USB ports on the EYE+ XTD Controller.

2. Click the CREATE A BACKUP button. A pop-up will guide you through the process.

3. Select the USB drive where the backup will be saved.

Important

If your device does not appear, ensure that:

• The USB drive is properly plugged in.

• The drive is formatted as NTFS or FAT (note limitations below).

• The drive is not formatted as exFAT, which is currently unsupported.

Warning

Backup files can exceed 4 GB in size. As a result, FAT-formatted drives may not support the backup due to file size limitations. We strongly recommend using NTFS.

After selecting the USB drive, click CREATE THE BACKUP to begin the process. When complete, a green banner will confirm that the backup was successful. The backup file will be saved with a .eyeplusxtd.backup extension.

Note

Recipe identifiers remain unchanged during the backup process.

Note

We recommend backing up your system regularly to prevent data loss.

Important

Backup files may contain sensitive information, including Secure Connection private keys and remote storage passwords. Store them securely.

Important

Recipes stored on remote storage are not backed up either. Be sure to export and save these separately.

Important

If your EYE+ XTD Controller is equipped with a Fieldbus module, its configuration is not included in the backup.

Restore a backup

This section allows you to restore your system using a previously created backup file.

To perform a restore:

1. Insert a USB drive that contains a valid backup file (.eyeplusxtd.backup) into one of the USB ports on the EYE+ XTD Controller.

2. If needed, refresh the list of available backups by clicking REFRESH BACKUP LIST.

3. From the list, select the backup you wish to restore and click the Restore a backup file action.

4. Confirm your selection when prompted, and wait for the restore process to complete.

Important

Restoring a backup will overwrite all current recipes and configuration settings stored on your EYE+ XTD. Any changes made after the backup was created will be lost and cannot be recovered.
