Automatic Backup and Restoration
All MeOS computers connected to a competition takes an automatic backup of the entire competition everythird minute. The backup is saved in MeOS data folder. The path to this folder varies, but you can see it under settings, which is available if you close down the competition.You can restore an automatic backup by selecting Restore Backup on the first page in MeOS. Then choose a competition from the list (which is sorted by name and time).
If you want to create extra backups in a specific location, you may use Interval Backup on the page Services. Select the location to save to and a time interval.
Hint
You can make a manual backup of the competition using Backup or Save as File on the page Competition. The entire competition is save as a XML file. You can restore such a file by the command Import Competition, which you find when no competition is opened. This will improt the selected file as a new competition (no existing competition will be overwritten).
As an additional measure of security, MeOS will immediately save each readout card in a file called sireadlog_date_time.csv, where date and time refers to the point in time when readout started.

This file is found in the folder MeOS on your desktop. To read out this file, use Import from File on the page SportIdent. Reading out this file has the same effect as reading all cards in it again.
