2.11 On-IC NVRAM Configuration
Storage
The MC58113-series ICs provide the ability to directly store configuration information such as gain parameters, drive-
related safety parameters, and other parameters. This setup information, once loaded, is automatically initialized into
the MC58113's active configuration registers at each power-up. When used in an actual control system the NVRAM
may therefore be useful to reduce or eliminate communications to the MC58113 IC during powerup. See the
Magellan
Motion Control IC User Guide
for more information on MC58113-series ICs powerup.
While developing a new MC58113-based application it is not recommended that the on-IC NVRAM be used to store
configuration data. Pro-Motion can store a wide variety of configuration parameters using its Save Project and Load
Project menu functions, and this generally represents a more flexible and general purpose approach.
Nevertheless, when ready, MC58113 configuration parameter programming or re-programming can be conveniently
accomplished using Pro-Motion.
