9 SMARTCARD Operation
Quantum MP default parameter values are stored on the SMARTCARD
that was shipped with the drive. See section 5.9
for details.
9.1 Introduction
This is a standard feature that enables simple configuration of
parameters in a variety of ways. The SMARTCARD can be used for:
•
Parameter copying between drives
•
Saving whole drive parameter sets
•
Saving ‘differences from default‘ parameter sets
•
Storing Onboard PLC programs
•
Automatically saving all user parameter changes for maintenance
purposes
•
Loading complete motor map parameters.
Refer to Figure 9-1 for installing the SMARTCARD. Ensure the
SMARTCARD is inserted with the MP arrow pointing upwards.
The drive only communicates with the SMARTCARD when commanded
to read or write, this means that the card may be ‘hot swapped’.

9.2 Easy saving and reading
The SMARTCARD has 999 individual data block locations. Each
individual location from 1 to 499 can be used to store data.
The drive can support SMARTCARDS that have a capacity of between
4kB and 512kB.
The usage of the data block locations in the SMARTCARD are shown in
Table 9-1.
Table 9-1 SMARTCARD data blocks
Parameter sets labelled as ‘Differences from default‘ will be much
smaller than whole parameter sets. Therefore they use a lot less
memory because most applications only require a few parameters to be
changed from the default setting.
The whole card may be protected from writing or erasing by setting the
read-only flag as shown in section 9.3.9
Either of these indications will tell the user that data is being transferred
to or from the SMARTCARD:
•
SM-Keypad: The decimal point after the fourth digit in the upper
display will flash.
•
SM-Keypad Plus: The symbol 'CC' will appear in the lower left hand
corner of the display.
The card should not be removed during data transfer because the drive
will trip. If a trip occurs you must either try to transfer the data again or, in
the case of a card-to-drive transfer, the default parameters should be
loaded.
9.3 Transferring data
When a code is entered into Pr
xx.00
and the drive is subsequently
reset, the drive will carry out the actions listed in Table 9-2.
The user is cautioned against saving parameters to data block 200, as
that is where the Quantum MP factory default values are stored. For the
same revision, the user should avoid performing code 999 Erase
SMARTCARD. See section 5.9
for
details.
Table 9-2 Transferring data
Where yyy indicates the data block number 001 to 999, refer to Table 9-
2 for restrictions on data block numbers.
If the read only flag is set then only codes 6yyy or 9777 are effective.
