Create a backup file for initial configuration

With this function, you can start editing your marking data and specify system setting
parameters before the laser marking system is delivered.
When the laser marking system is delivered, you restore the new backup file to the laser
marking system.
We recommend restoring a newly created backup file only for initial configuration. This is
useful, because the following parameters on the "System settings" screen should be set
before creating the first marking file: "Head direction to axis", "Update day", "First week of the
year", "LP-400/V compatibility", "Default setting for East Asian characters" and default fonts
under "Advanced system settings".
If you restore a new backup later, be aware, that the current settings in the laser marking
system are overwritten. It may happen that the settings defined in the new backup are not
the same as your current settings on the laser marking system. For instance, a marking file
(No. 0002) is already saved on the laser marking system. Your backup does not contain a
marking file in the corresponding file No. 0002. If you restore your backup, the marking file
No. 0002 will be deleted.
Create a backup file for initial configuration:
1. Start Laser Marker NAVI smart.
The "Startup" screen appears.
2. Select "Offline" > "New..." > "Backup (.lmb)".
3. Select your future laser marking system from the list.
The "Marking settings" screen opens.
4. You can create marking data on the "Marking settings" screen and specify different
parameters on the "System settings" screen.
5. Select "Save backup" > "Save as".
The file is saved as a backup file (.lmb) to your local or network drive.
