The field panel’s dbFile setting can be AutoRestore/AutoSave Enabled as an additional optional backup/restore source. The Desigo CC Backup/Restore feature can be Enabled as an additional optional backup/restore source.

The information in this section applies to APOGEE field panels at revisions earlier than 3.2.4 and on a network with Desigo CC.

You are discouraged from using APOGEE field panels at revisions earlier than 3.2.4 because the Database Restore features for native BACnet services are deficient. Use these revisions only if the APOGEE field panels cannot be upgraded to Revision 3.2.4.

If Integration Drivers are required, it is recommended that you do not use Integration Drivers with rev string xxD 2.0 or later.
