Database Backup & Restore
This service is intended to be used by technicians or those responsible for maintaining system operation.
Database Backup and Restore increase the operational safety and reliability by offering the capability to backup or restore the databases of your gateway units. The combination of immediate and scheduled backup options offers supermarkets operational peace of mind, ensuring timely backups of their controllers for both spontaneous incidents and planned security measures.
You can store up to 4 backups per controller, and in the event of additional backups, the oldest one will be overwritten. Want to see the features in action? Then we recommend you to watch these videos:
