3 ‐ The Trixter (Dell) PC
- Copy the Trixter Software and Test Application
- Export the PostgreSQL database using its backup feature.
This section suggests to use a USB Flash Drive to copy the files off the PC. An 8GB drive should suffice.
Please note these instructions are for the X-Dream 3 software associated with the X-Dream V1 bike, not the software associated with the X-Dream V2 bike which has a lot more in it (>50 Gb).
- Copy the "XDream Test.exe" console application from the desktop to the "Trixter Additional Apps" folder.
- Zip the Trixter folder (right-click, send to compressed folder)…
Windows won’t allow this; you’ll be prompted to create it on the desktop instead. Click Yes.
This is not strictly necessary. If you don’t want to copy the user data, skip this step. The X-Dream software will simply create a blank database on the new system.
- From the Start Menu, locate PostgreSQL 9.1 and start the "pgAdmin III" application
- In the Object Browser, click into the server using the password "postgres":
- Click down to the trixter database, right click and select "Backup…"
- Enter a file name to backup to, and the format, encoding and rolename options
- Make sure all the objects are checked on the Objects tab:
- Click the Backup button. Look for an exit code of 0.
Copy the trixter zip file and the database backup file to a USB flash drive.
