Backup/restore #51

Please excuse my ignorance if this has been covered, some searching has not produced the answers I'm looking for. I'm wondering where I might find some more information on specifically what type of Venus settings are saved in the backup? You have 'settings' in the list...does that include settings such as tanks and temperature device settings?

The file 'settingsList' contains all the parameters that are backed up.

The built-in analog tank and temp inputs ARE included. Unfortunately, things like external tank ant temp devices are not because their settings path includes a serial number or other variable. I can't include these with variable strings.

Victron is working on another approach and had something in a previous beta version but encountered issues that caused them to remove it. I suspect the work on this is on the back burner but we may see it eventually.
