5.3.1 SRAM handling
The user data of the NC (machine data, setting data, user variables, part programs, cycles,
etc.), as well as the retentive data of the PLC are battery-backed in the static memory area
(SRAM) of the MCI board.
With each "NCK power ON RESET" (warm restart) or shutting down Windows XP correctly,
the contents of the SRAM is saved to the hard disk of the PCU as an SRAM image. In this
case, the SRAM image valid until then is also saved to the hard disk of the PCU as an
SRAM backup.
In certain error or servicing instances, the SRAM image or backup can be accessed so that
work can be continued immediately without recommissioning the SINUMERIK 840Di sl.
