The Vision memory is a non-volatile(sp?) memory. That means it does
not require external power to retain the data. It has a build in
"battery" in the chip that will last many years before it required a
recharge. Everytime you turn on the system, the "battery' will get
recharge. I have left the tranny on many time and the data stays.
There must be something worng with the system that lost the settings.
