How to restore a database backup on the EasyOne Air device
This instruction will guide you through the options to restore a database backup on the EasyOne Air device. The backup data is located within the backup folder on the SD card. See how to perform a backup. If the backup data is encrypted, the encryption password is needed to perform the database restore.
All data created and settings change during the time between backup and restore will be permanently lost, which also includes audit trail entries.
It is strongly recommended to perform a backup before restoring the database.
A database restore can only be performed by users with admin level rights or by the default admin user if user management is not activated. Let’s have a look on how to restore a database to the EasyOne Air.
- To perform this operation, you need an SD card with a backup on it. The SD card slot is located next to the battery. To access it, open the battery door and remove the battery.
- In the menu, go to: Tools > Database > Restore and confirm with Yes.
- Enter your administrator password.
- Confirm with OK.
- Now select the backup database you would like to restore. Optionally enter an encryption password. If the file is not password protected, then leave the password field empty and click Confirm.
- Here you go, the database is being restored. Wait for the operation to be completed and click OK.
The device will request a reboot. Follow along with the instructions on the screen and check the results in your restored database.
