Follow this guide to backup and restore your ata’s configuration, it may look long and tedious but it takes seconds.

Create a backup...
1. Download this file and extract the contents to your desktop.
(You should now have a folder called spaconf located on your desktop containing two files.)

3. Open command prompt, you can do this buy clicking on "Start", "Run" and entering "cmd" or "command" in windows XP. Navigate the command prompt to the spaconf folder located on your destop by entering "cd desktop" then "cd spaconf" so you have the following command prompt: "C:\Users\your username is shown here\Desktop\spaconf>".

4. Enter the following command “spaconf http://admin:mypassword@myata/ ata.config”.
(replace "mypassword" with the admin password of the ata your backing up, finally replace "myata" with the ip address of the ata your backing up.)

So for example if the admin password of my ata was "1234" and the ip address of the ata is "192.168.1.1" then i would enter the following command: “spaconf http://admin:1234@192.168.1.1/ ata.config".

Now press enter...

5. That's it, you now have a file called "ata.cfg" located in the spaconf folder located on your destop, this is your configuration backup.
