How do I store the OS to a TL media card on the MX2424?

The MX-2424 ships with a blank TL Media card. When you unpack and install your MX-2424 the currently installed version of MX-OS may be backed up to the card. This will enable the MX-2424 to be started and MX-OS to be reloaded from the TL-Media card in the unlikely event that the Flash ROM in the MX-2424 gets zapped as could happen during a power surge or brown-out. (NOTE: It is recommended that the MX-2424’s power be connected to an Un-interruptable Power Supply {UPS} or a quality surge protector.) It is not necessary to connect the MX-2424 to a computer for the following procedure:
1. Press SETUP [44] and scroll to Menu 995. Press STORE [20] and confirm by pressing STORE/[20].
2. You will be prompted to Insert Blank TL Media. (NOTE: Any data on the TL Media card will be lost during this process.) Insert a TL Media card and press STORE/[20]. After briefly displaying Menu 995 again the LCD will show Formatting TLMedia. This takes approximately 2 minutes, do not
press any keys during this process. (NOTE: The card goes in with the notch (chamfer) down and the gold contact facing right.)
3. The LCD will then display the progress of writing data blocks to the TL Media card. This will take about 5 minutes.
4. When finished, the LCD will display Software Saved. Press CLEAR twice and remove the TL Media card.
