(c) Memory Copy Precautions
1) Before memory copy, the standby system CPU memory will be automatically
formatted.
Then, the "PRG. MEM. CLEAR (error code: 6400)" stop error will occur in the
standby system CPU module.
However, if a stop error has occurred before memory copy, the "PRG. MEM
CLEAR" is not detected.
2) Memory copy is stopped when any of the following operations is performed
during memory copy.
At this time, the memory contents of the standby system CPU module will be
illegal.
Perform any of the following operations after confirming that memory copy is
completed.
• Power off the control system or standby system.
• Reset the control system or standby system CPU module.
• Disconnect the tracking cable.
If the following error occurs during memory copy, the memory copy is also
stopped with the memory contents of the standby system CPU module being
illegal.
• Tracking cable fault
(d) How to confirm memory copy completion
Completion of memory copy can be confirmed by the special relays and GX
Developer.
1) Confirmation by special relays
When memory copy is completed, the special relay "Memory copy to other
system status flag (SM1596)" turns off and "Memory copy to other system
completion flag (SM1597)" turns on.
Check whether SM1596 and SM1597 are ON or OFF to confirm memory copy
completion.
Also, whether memory copy is normally completed or abnormally completed
can be checked by the special register "Memory copy completion status
(SD1596)".
• When memory copy is normally completed: SD1596: 0
• When memory copy is abnormally completed: SD1596: other than 0 (error
code)
