I have a Norstar 0x32 system with USA MICS 1.0 Software. I recently backed the system up using NRU9.0. Is there software available that can take the backup, read it and print out the data from the tables? When the system was installed 5 yrs ago the installer had a printout of the program with the original table configuration, but there have been some pretty extensive changes since then and I would like a hard copy.
Thanks,

There is a way involving the workbook Excel sheets in the NRU files on your PC.
I did this once a year or more ago but I'm afraid I cannot exactly tell you how but I will try to gather the info next time I am in the test room but somebody may know how this is done here.
Must be done during non business hours as this slows the system down much more then the uploading/downloading does.

I tried this exact same thing a while back, and it didn't work because the workbook only supports 2.0 and up.
Lemme know how this goes!
 
Cbarrol,
Did you use the Norstar Manager which comes in NRU 9.0?

Thanks, everyone for your feedback. I used the Norstar Manager that came with NRU9.0 to backup my system. I also read the documentation on the ICS Workbook function and didnt see an option for USA MICS1.0. I also remember another feature of the NRU not working with the USA MICS1.0 software. Im sure there must be some software that can generate a printout because I have a printout from the original installation, however it does not look like an EXCEL printout.
Thanks,
Craig
