2.7.1. Save, Load, and Delete Parameters
The graphic display allows storing multiple parameter configurations of different drives and
downloading them to other equipments (or to the same drive).
The graphic display can store up to thousands of parameter configurations. This functionality
allows the user to:
Save different configurations for different applications. User can select the configurations of
the drive parameters according to the application where the drive is going to be used. In this
way, the user downloads the proper configuration to the drive.
Configure multiple drives with the same parameter configuration. The user should only
configure one drive, save the configuration and download it to the remaining drives.
Save the drive configuration as backup.
Save Parameters (Upload to the Display)
This option allows the graphic display to read all values of the configuration parameters from the
drive and store them locally in a file. Each created file contents a drive configuration.
Before saving the parameters configuration, the user should verify that the drive is not in a fault
status and the motor is stopped (OFF).
To save parameters, follow the next steps:
1. Tap on the ‘P’ icon on the title bar. The system menu is opened.
2. Tap on option ‘Parameters’ in the menu. A new menu with three available options will appear.
3. Tap on option ‘Save’. It will appear the configuration dialogue window for ‘Save parameters’.
In this dialogue window is observed the next:
o Edit box for the ‘File name’: It is used to write the file name for the new drive
configuration.
o List box with the existing files: All of the existing files with different saved drive
configurations are shown in the list.
4. Write a name for the new parameters configuration file in the edit box or select an existing file
from the list box (if you want to overwrite the file), and tap on ‘OK’ button.
5. If the written name matches with the name of some existing file or if the user selects an
existing file from the list box, a question message will appear with the text ‘There is already a
file with the same name. If you accept, the data on the file will be overwritten. Continue?’. If
the user wants to overwrite the file, then he should tap on ‘OK’ button. If not, user should tap
on ‘X’ button to go back to the previous dialogue window in order to write a different file
name.
6. After tapping on ‘OK’ button to execute the saving process, a progress message window
appears with the text ‘Reading parameters from drive’.
7. When the process is finished, if parameters are correctly saved, a notification message
appears with the text ‘Parameters have been successfully saved’. In case of error, the shown
notification will be ‘Error saving parameters. Parameters haven’t been saved’. In any case,
tap on ‘OK’ button.
Note: In case of error when saving parameters, repeat the process above described.
