9-4 Automatic Transfers from SD Memory Cards

• Perform the automatic transfer again.
• Clear all of memory and then download the project from the Sysmac Studio.
• All data items that are not specified for the automatic transfer will retain their present values.
• If the present values of variables that are set to be retained (with the Retain attribute) are not set to
be transferred, the previous present values of those variables will be retained. However, the values of
any variables that do not meet the retain conditions are initialized. These are the retain conditions for
the variable:
• The variable name, data type name, and data type size must be the same before and after trans-
ferring the data.
• The SD Memory Card will remain mounted after completion of the automatic transfer operation.
• The write protection for the CPU Unit that is set in the Write Protection at Startup setting is used after
completion of the automatic transfer operation.
