1.2 Rough Pre-operation Procedure
* 1 Project data can be also downloaded/uploaded via Ethernet.
For download/upload of project data via Ethernet, BootOS and standard monitor OS should be installed in the
GOT in advance so that the GOT and PC can communicate with each other via Ethernet by setting
Communication Settings.
Refer to the following manual for details.
• GT Designer3 Version1 Screen Design Manual (Fundamentals) (Chapter 7 COMMUNICATION WITH
GOT)
• GT Designer2 Version Basic Operation/Data Transfer Manual (Chapter 8 TRANSFERRING DATA)
* 2 The B drive cannot be set as the OS boot drive.
Precautions for setting OS boot drive to [A: Standard CF Card]
(1) GOT startup time
When the OS boot drive is set to [A: Standard CF Card], the GOT startup time with
the A drive takes longer than that with the C drive.
The GOT startup time with the A drive differs depending on the CF card type, the
numbers of extended function OSs and option OSs, and project data size.
(2) Handling CF card during booting OS
Do not remove the CF card and do not turn off the CF card access switch during
booting the OS.
Doing so causes the boot to fail. As a result, the GOT does not start correctly.
(3) Corrective actions when OS cannot be booted
The OS cannot be booted in the following conditions.
Take the following corrective actions, and then boot the OS again.
Condition Corrective action
The type of the GOT to be used differs from the
GOT type data set with GT Designer3 or GT
Designer2 stored in the CF card.
Select the same GOT type as the GOT to be used in
the Communicate with Memory Card screen. Select
OSs and project data to be downloaded, and then
download the selected data to the CF card.
The GOT has insufficient memory.
Mount an option function board with add-on memory
on the GOT or delete unnecessary data.
For details, refer to the following manual.
• GT Designer3 Version1 Screen Design
Manual (Fundamentals)
• GT Designer2 Version Basic Operation/
Data Transfer Manual
The CF card access switch is off. Turn on the CF card access switch.
