Back up and restore calibration data (RDD ↔ HDD ↔ MOD)
Back up the Aquilion 16's calibration data from the RDD to the scan-system HDD and on to MOD for offline storage using the "CalBackupToHDD" tool and the `cp` command, or run the same two tools in reverse to restore it from MOD back through the HDD to the RDD.

Aquilion 16 (TSX-101A) — system software volume 2D260-074E*B, source p.73-76 (printed running page footers "5-10" through "5-13" — this is a continuation of the same Chapter 5 pagination that starts at printed "5-1" on p.64; see Related, toshiba-ct-aquilion16-software-backup-site-info-tool, which documents that chapter as titled "BACKUP OF SITE INFORMATION"). This atom covers source section 5.3, "Backup and Restoration of Calibration Data": §5.3.1 Preparations, §5.3.2 Backing up calibration data, §5.3.3 Restoring calibration data. It does not cover the separate Backup Tool GUI (§5.1-5.2, MO-based, site information) that precedes it, nor the calibration-data-deletion workflow or NRA/air acquisition that produces this data in the first place (see Related).
Personnel
