5.2.5 Using Restore file
Restore files are used in the Beckhoff device manager for saving existing EtherCAT Terminal configurations
and settings.
Without a Restore file, EtherCAT Terminal settings are lost, if the terminal is replaced. If a Restore file was
created, the parameters can be copied to a new EtherCAT Terminal when the Bus Coupler is started.
Requirements:
• The Beckhoff Device Manager was already started (see: Starting the Beckhoff Device Manager [
}
38] ).
Use Restore files as follows:
1. Click on EtherCAT , then on Master .
2. Under EtherCAT Slaves all EtherCAT Terminals are displayed, for which a Restore file can be created.
3. Use the option Restore State to show whether a Restore file was created for an EtherCAT Terminal.
EMPTY: No Restore file was created.
VALID: A valid Restore file was created.
MAPPING: The mapping was changed and has not yet been saved in the Restore file.
4. Under Configuration Management you can specify whether a Restore file should be created, deleted,
saved or restored.
ð Please note that the settings from a Restore file are not copied to the new EtherCAT Terminal until the
Bus Coupler is restarted.
