Delete/restore
non-volatile data
1 When the "Delete/restore non-volatile data" switch setting is
selected, the non-volatile data of the D4x5 is first deleted and
then restored along with the contents of the PMEMORY
backup file.
Downgrade
(device update
tool)
B SIMOTION D4x5 Control Units and projects can be updated
using update data created at an earlier point in time. This
update data is generated with the device update tool (Menu:
"Project>Start device update tool" in SIMOTION SCOUT).
If the updating process fails to bring about the desired result,
the update can be rejected by means of the switch position.
This will roll the system back to the previous configuration.
Backing up
diagnostic data
and non-volatile
data
D The diagnostic data and non-volatile data can be backed up in
STOP, STOPU, and RUN modes. The advantage of backing
up in RUN mode is the availability of enhanced diagnostic
information (via websites) and TO alarm information.
