Backup Procedure
1
Verify that the power is ON, DIP switch 1 (REGS) is ON, and all of the SmartSlice I/O Units
are participating in I/O communication.
2
Turn DIP switch 4 (BACK) ON, then OFF, and then ON again within 3 s to start the back
up.
3
While the data is being backed up, the EtherCAT Communication Unit’s TS indicator will
flash green every 0.5 s. The TS indicator will stop flashing and stay green lit when the
backup is completed. If the restore operation fails, the TS indicator will be lit red for 2 s.
Precautions for Correct Use
•
Do not turn OFF the Unit power supply while data is being backed up. The data will not be
backed up properly if the power is turned OFF.
•
The backup data will be erased along with the registered I/O configuration table if DIP switch
pin 1 (REGS) is turned OFF.
•
Backing up the parameter data is required for easy replacement of faulty Units.
When a SmartSlice I/O Unit has been replaced, this function will automatically download (restore)
SmartSlice I/O Unit parameter data that was previously backed up in the EtherCAT Communication
Unit. The following conditions are required to execute the automatic restore function with a replaced
SmartSlice I/O Unit:
•
DIP switch 1 (REGS) is ON when the power turns ON, the registered table is enabled.
•
DIP switch 3 (ADR) is ON when the power turns ON, the automatic restore function is enabled.
•
Before replacement the parameter data has been backed up in the EtherCAT Communication Unit
using the Backup procedure.
Preparing Data Restore
1
Create backup data in the Communication Unit with the backup function.
For details, see 5-2-7 Backup Function (4 | BACK).
2
Turn ON DIP switch 3 (ADR).
