Description of Operation Section 3-2
3-2-7 Replacing Function Block Data in the Loop Controller
(LCB01/03/05 Ver. 3.5)
Outline The simple backup function enables directly updating the output
BACKUPE1.PRM backup file (i.e., function block data file) in the Loop Con-
troller by using a FINS 2203 command (SINGLE FILE WRITE). This enables
replacing the Loop Controller function block data from the host computer.
For information on using FINS commands, refer to 6-3 Description of FINS
Commands.
Applications The function block data in the Loop Controller can all be replaced in a batch
operation by using a host computer to write to the Loop Controller the
BACKUPE1. PRM file, which has been prepared in advance. Using special
Support Software (CX-Process Tool) is not required.
