The eight system snapshots are stored on Power Core and are managed from the surface using the Save and Load keys (on the Main module). They always save and load settings globally, and are ideal for tasks such as resetting the console to a default starting point.

In the standard configuration, an Unlock key is configured to prevent accidental operation. This option can be disabled by editing the configuration (via the "System -> Definition -> Parameter = Snapshots" branch of the 'Tree Definition'). In the examples below, it is assumed that "Snap Unlock" is enabled.

Saving a Snapshot

The steps below describe how to save a system snapshot.

1.    Press and hold Unlock followed by Save.

The eight soft keys light up to show which memories are used:

  • Red = used.
  • Green = empty.

In the example below, snapshots 1 and 3 contain existing settings, while the others are free to use. If you select a used memory, then its contents are overwritten.

2.   Keep holding Save and select a memory number - e.g. 4.

The Save button flashes magenta to indicate a successful operation.

Loading a Snapshot

The steps below describe how to load a system snapshot.

1.    Press and hold Unlock followed by Load.

You can see which memories contain data by looking at the color of the numbered soft keys:

  • Red = contains settings.
  • Black (unlit) = the memory is empty.

2.   Keep holding Load and select a red memory number to load its contents - e.g. 4.

The Load key flashes magenta to indicate a successful operation and the console resets according to the snapshot recall options (described earlier).

Clearing a Snapshot Memory

The steps below describe how to clear a system snapshot memory.

1.    Press and hold Unlock followed by both Save AND Load.

You can see which memories contain data by looking at the color of the numbered soft keys.

2.   Keep holding Save and Load and select a red memory number - e.g. 4.

The snapshot memory is cleared.

You can check the success of the operation by pressing and holding Unlock followed by Load - the relevant soft key should now be black (unlit) to show that the memory is empty.
