10.5 Backup Configuration
Option 5 in Menu 24 - System Maintenance allows you to backup the current Prestige configuration to
your workstation. Backup is highly recommended once your Prestige is functioning properly.
You must perform the backup and restore through the console port. Any serial communications program
should work fine; however, you must use Xmodem protocol to perform the download/upload.
Step 1. Go to Menu 24.5 (shown next).

name, e.g., p642.rom and make sure you choose the Xmodem Protocol. Then click on

menu.
