DX100 9.3 Automatic Backup Function
9-15
Backup when Specific Signal is Input
While the DX100 memory is edited such as overwriting, the backup
operation becomes an error even if there is an input to a specific signal
(#40560). To start the specific input backup, perform it while the robot
program is stopped and a job or file is not being modified.
Also, since the signal input is executed at rising detection, turn the signal
to "0" if it is already "1", then return to "1" again.
Overwriting Limit in CompactFlash
The number of times that the CompactFlash can be overwritten is limited
to approx. 100,000 times. Because frequent backup operations may
shorten the life of CompactFlash, the number of backup times should be
minimized as much as possible.
