2. How to Save Data
The controller adopts a flash memory. Accordingly, some data is stored in the memory areas backed up by a
battery, while other data is stored in the flash memory areas.
Also note that transferring data from the PC software or teaching pendant to the controller will only write the
data in the controller’s memory, as illustrated below, and the data will be cleared once the controller power is
turned off or the controller is reset.
To save important data, always write it in the flash memory.
2.1 Factory Setting – When a Backup Battery Is Used
(When the X-SEL controller is shipped)
(Other parameter No. 20 = “2” (Backup battery installed))
* Encoder parameters are stored in the EEPROM of the actuator’s encoder, not in the controller’s EEPROM.
Therefore, encoder parameters will be loaded to the controller every time the controller power is turned on
or a software reset is executed.
