this purpose, you can independently create an application-specific parameter set in
SOPAS ET and change it if required. You then load the current parameter set to the
permanent parameter memory of the device.
NOTE
After completing configuration, permanently save the parameters in the nonvolatile
device memory. As part of a data backup plan, always save the current parameter set
outside the device memory. If necessary (device failure, etc.), this makes it easier to
restore the current parameter set used to date to a replacement device of the same
type,
see "External data back-up", page 35
Memory organization for parameter set
The following diagram shows the memory organization scheme for the internal and
external components involved.
