9.3.1.2 Outline
The automatic backup function saves the internally stored data in a single
file in advance for the smooth restoration from unexpected troubles of the
controller.
The teaching operation is one of the factors that changes the internally
stored data. Thus, a mode which backs up the latest data after the
teaching operation is prepared. To confirm the termination of the teaching
operation, check the mode key whether it is changed from teach mode to
play mode.
Other than the teaching operation, the present position of the robot or the
value of a variable can be pointed out as the factors to change the
internally stored data. These data, however, are changed after each
operation and have very little need to be retained permanently.
Accordingly, backing up these data at regular interval should be well
enough to operate and the mode to back up the data at regular interval is
also prepared.
Furthermore, the mode to back up the data when starting up the controller
and when inputting signals are also available for some specific versions.
