(3) Batch Save to Compact Flash
By using the DIP switches, the batch save function of the CPU-02 Module can save all the user application data
from the RAM to the specified folder and file, \MP_BKUP\BACKUP, of the Compact Flash without going
through the MPE720.
Note: 1. If data in the Compact Flash has already been saved in a batch or another form written in from the
MPE720, it will be cleared when a new batch is saved.
2. A batch load is not possible if a motion register is used for trace definition, or if the relevant motion
module is not defined or not mounted.
3. The security function is not provided for program transfers with the Compact Flash in the CPU soft-
ware (version 2.41 or earlier).
The procedure for batch saving to the Compact Flash is as follows:
1.
Confirm that the CARD, LOAD and SAVE of the CPU-02 Module’s SW2 are
set to OFF.
2.
Insert the formatted Compact Flash into the Compact Flash slot on the CPU-
02 Module with the power supply ON.
3.
Set the CARD switch to ON.
The PWON LED indicator lamp will light up.
4.
Set the SAVE switch to ON.
The batch save will start, and the CARD LED indicator lamp will light up. When a batch save is completed, the
CARD LED indicator lamp will go out.
Note: If the operation fails, the ALM LED indicator lamp will light up, and the error will be reported to the
system register SW00658. Refer to
3.2.2 [ a ] Compact Flash (CF) Slot Specifications
.
The ALM LED indicator lamp will turn OFF by re-executing batch save or by restarting the
MP2200.
• How to Input Data from the Compact Flash to the MPE720
The MPE720 can read application data that was batch-saved to Compact Flash. For information on how to
read the data, refer to the MPE720 user's manual.
• Writing in from the MPE720 to the Compact Flash
The MPE720 can write application data to the Compact Flash if the application data was batch-dumped from
the Controller. If data that is created or edited off-line is written in to the Compact Flash, an error may occur
in a batch load.
Refer to the MPE720 user's manual for information on how to write application data to the Compact Flash
using the MPE720.
