(2) Backup data file
After data are backed up, a backup data file "MEMBKUP0.QBP" is created in a memory card.
Only one backup data file can be stored to a memory card.
When data are backed up to a memory card containing a backup data file again, the stored backup data file is
overwritten. When a memory card contains another file, a backup data file can be stored in the memory card
without deleting the stored file.
*1 *2
*1: After restoration, if the parameters are stored in the memory card but not in the CPU module, the CPU module operates by
the parameter settings in the memory card.
*2: When data are backed up to the Flash card, only a backup data file can be stored.
The backup data file can be deleted by "Delete PLC data” of GX Developer.
