OPENNET CONTROLLER USER’S MANUAL 5-19
Memory Card
A user program can be stored on a miniature memory card from a computer running WindLDR and downloaded to the
OpenNet Controller CPU module without using a computer. This feature is available on FC3A-CP2KM and FC3A-
CP2SM only.
Using a memory card, the user program in the CPU module can be replaced where WindLDR or a computer cannot be used.
Depending whether a memory card is installed in the OpenNet Controller CPU module or not, a user program stored on
the memory card or in the CPU is executed, respectively.
Downloading User Program from Memory Card to the CPU
1. Power down the
OpenNet Controller CPU module.
2. Insert a memory card into the CPU module until the card clicks into place as shown at right.
3. Power up the CPU module. The CPU starts to run the user program stored on the memory card.
4. Check the operation of the user program stored on the memory card.
5. If there is no problem in the program operation, power down the CPU.
6. Hold the communication enable button depressed, and power up the CPU. The user program is downloaded from the
memory card to the flash ROM in the CPU. For the communication enable button, see page 2-1.
While program download is in progress, the ERROR LED flashes. If program download fails, the ERROR LED goes on.
7. Power down the CPU, and remove the miniature card by pressing the miniature card eject button.
8. Power up the CPU to start the program.
