Note: This step must be done using SmartSDR for Windows. If you skip this step, you will delete any saved profiles.
NOTE: If you are using SmartSDR for MacOS, please refer to the SmartSDR for Mac Online Manual for equivalent instructions:
Export (Backup) Your Radio's Profiles to Your Computer
- Start SmartSDR for Windows and connect to your radio
- From the menu bar, select Profiles -> Import/Export Profiles - the Profile Import/Export windows will open
- Click on the EXPORT tab
- Click Select All at the top so all the little circles are checked
- UNCHECK the Preference option.
- Click EXPORT. A file save window will appear. Just save the export files to your desktop.
On your desktop, two files will be created. The profile export is a file with a name prefaced with SSDR and indicating the date and time of the export with a file extension of ssdr_cfg. Memories are saved as the memories.csv file.
Import Previously Exported Profiles
- Start SmartSDR for Windows and connect to your radio
- From the menu bar, select Profiles -> Import/Export Profiles - the Profile Import/Export windows will open
- Click on the IMPORT tab
- Click the BROWSE button - A file selection window will appear
- Select the file from your desktop with a file name in the format of SSDR_Config-mm-dd-yyy_h.mm.PM (or AM).ssdr_cfg that corresponds to the date and time of the Profile you wish to Import. Click OPEN.
- Be sure that the "Preferences" box is NOT Checked.
- Click on IMPORT - the profiles will be copied to the radio. The radio will close all panadapters while importing and recreate them when the IMPORT is complete.
After importing profiles, please test the radio again to confirm it is operating properly.
If a problem develops or returns after importing your profiles, it indicates a profile is causing the problem and should be deleted and recreated by performing a Factory Reset procedure without importing any profiles, and then recreating your profiles manually.
Please use this procedure to Factory Reser your FlexRadio:
