Downloading and saving SIMOTION user data
Overview
It is advisable to backup all SIMOTION user data (programs, configuration data, parameters)
to the CompactFlash Card after having completed commissioning of SIMOTION D410.
Downloading user data
Use the "Target system" > "Load" > "Load to target system" command to transfer the
following data from the SIMOTION SCOUT engineering system (ES) to the "non-volatile
data" area of SIMOTION D410:
●
Configuration data
●
Programs
●
Parameterization
●
Technology packages
The hardware configuration of SIMOTION D410 and the retain variables are also saved to
the "nonvolatile SIMOTION data" area.
Note
Using the menu:
•
"Target system" > "Load" > "Load project to target system" loads all of the project data to
the target system.
•
"Target system" > "Load" > "Load CPU / drive unit to target device" only loads the data of
the selected device / drive element to the target device.
Volatile SIMOTION data is lost if you shut down the SIMOTION D410 module after the
download.
