●
Backing up configuration data for modular machines in conjunction with the
_activateConfiguration system function, stored in the following directory:
–
install\simotion
●
Backing up unit data (data saved on the CompactFlash Card using _saveUnitDataSet
/_exportUnitDataSet), stored in the following directory:
–
user\simotion\user dir\<unitname>
Note
When a version is changed, you must use the "Back up variables" function to back up
data saved using _saveUnitDataSet or _exportUnitDataSet in a way that is not
dependent on the version. You then have the option of restoring them using "Restore
variables".
When performing an upgrade with a firmware version that is ≥ V4.1, these two
functions are only required for backing up and restoring unit data sets that have been
created using _saveUnitDataSet .
Retain and unit data (saved with _exportUnitDataSet ) remain valid even after a
version upgrade.
