Backup
Manual backup
You can make a backup when necessary, for example, after you have started up the
drive or when you want to copy the settings to another drive.
Parameter changes from fieldbus interfaces are ignored unless you have forced
parameter saving with parameter 96.07 Parameter save manually.
Automatic backup
The control panel has a dedicated space for one automatic backup. An automatic
backup is created two hours after the last parameter change. After completing the
backup, the panel waits for 24 hours before checking for additional parameter
changes. If any changes exist, it creates a new backup overwriting the previous one
when two hours have passed after the latest change.
Notes:

• Parameter changes from fieldbus interfaces are ignored unless you have forced
parameter saving with parameter 96.07 Parameter save manually.
