5.6.3 Project File Backup and SD Card Handling
Using an SD memory card makes it possible to load the same configuration (plus
firmware and Webpages) into multiple ILX69-PBM modules without using a PC. The
memory card must be prepared by a PC beforehand.
Restoring a configuration from an SD card can only be done when there is no backplane
communications between the ILX69-PBM and CompactLogix processor. Make sure that
the CompactLogix processor is disconnected from the power supply in order to restore a
configuration from the SD card.
Safety Precautions for the ILX69-PBM Installation
Obey to the following safety messages on personal injury when powering a
disconnected PLC power supply.
Lethal Electrical Shock caused by Parts with more than 50V!
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE is present inside of a powered PLC power supply module. The
danger of a lethal electrical shock caused by parts with more than 50V may occur if you
power a PLC power supply module when its housing is open.
Strictly obey to all safety rules provided by the device manufacturer in the documentation.
Disconnect the network power (power plug) from the power supply before you disconnect
the module from the backplane.
When you disconnect the PLC module from the power supply module, use end cap
terminators and close the power supply module housing.
