Restoring Display Settings or Machine Settings
Use the Restore Settings dialog in order to restore previously saved display settings or machine settings. From this dialog, you can restore the full configuration settings of the Display. These settings may be stored in previously saved:
- display settings files
- machine settings files
Be sure to restore the correct machine settings file for your machine. Display settings files can be used for any machine, regardless of type.
Note: The machine settings file contains the machine dimensions. Only use the machine settings file on the same machine that the file was created on.
Note: When you restore display or machine settings, the configuration settings for the Receiver and the brightness settings of the Display are not changed.
AccuGrade Systems are unable to restore the angle sensor calibration settings.

In order to access the Restore Settings dialog complete the following steps:
- Be sure that there is a data card inserted in the Display.
