3.3.4 Saving the Settings
When it is delivered, the drive has no parameters recorded. The controller selects velocity
control mode. However, the current setup configuration can be saved with the command
save
by storing it in a non-volatile memory (an EEPROM). This configuration will then be recalled
when the drive is next switched on.
Warning:
The command
save
returns the response
“saved”
when the data has been stored in
the memory. From commencement of the command until this response is received the power
supply must not be interrupted, otherwise the drive will be reset to its original state.
The command
fconfig
resets the drive to its as-delivered state (i.e. factory configuration), in the
event that all the parameters become so out of adjustment that a functioning system can no
longer be set up. In this event, further assistance may also be obtained using the command
base
.
