It isrecommended that each project be saved to a floppy disc and kept with each client's job files. To make backupcopies, proceed as follows:1. Open the hard drive icon from "My Computer" (usually drive C:) in Win 98/NT/ME/2000/XP. Double-click on the Program Files directory and open the DragMRC folder, then the Projects folder.2. Locate the project files. The files in the Projects folder will have a .pjd extension.3. Open a window for the backup drive and make a Projects folder for that drive.4. Click and drag the files to be backed-up that are in the Projects folder on the main hard drive and dropthem into the Projects folder in the backup directory. To COPY the files to a floppy disk, right-click onthe selected files and choose 3.5 Floppy (Drive letter) under the SEND TO menu.NOTE 1: Project files can be relatively large, requiring up to 1 MB of space or more, depending on thecomplexity of your project. When backing up to 1.44 MB floppies, you may need one floppy for eachProject.NOTE 2: These file sizes can be reduced dramatically, if needed, by using a good file compressionprogram, like WinZip.U SING B ACKUP FILESTo use back-up files at a later date, copy them back to the Projects folder in the DragMRC directory (after un-Zipping them, if previously Zipped). Proceed as follows:1. Locate the Projects folder on the main and backup directory or drives.2. On the backup directory or drive, open the Projects folder and identify the files needed, with the properextensions, (.pjd). Un-Zip them, if previously Zipped.3. Click and drag these files from the backup directory/drive and drop them into the Projects folder in theDragMRC directory.B ACKING-U P SMARTP AD AND P ALETTE F ILESThe SmartPad, Palette, RS232pals folders in the DragMRC directory contain all the files of learned individual IRcommands and specific palettes that have been created for all projects.
