9.3.2 Settings for Automatic Backup
To set the automatic backup function, set each item at the automatic
backup display.
9.3.2.1 The CompactFlash of the Programming Pendant
To use the automatic backup function, insert CompactFlash in the
CompactFlash slot on the programming pendant. Only while the controller
power supply is OFF, the CompactFlash can be inserted or removed.
When the data could not be saved in CompactFlash during an automatic
backup due to the absence or insufficient capacity of the CompactFlash,
an error message “Cannot backup CompactFlash” appears. At the same
time, the signal “occurrence of error” is output, but the robot program will
not be stopped. Check if CompactFlash is inserted and if it has enough
capacity, and take the necessary actions. If no actions are taken while the
error occurs, the data cannot be saved.
Yaskawa recommends that the data be saved in two or more
CompactFlash to minimize problems if the CompactFlash should be
damaged.
Regarding the Compact Flash for auto backup, refer to “Recommended
CompactFlash” in section 9.1.2 “Device” on page 9-1.
Storage capacities needed for CompactFlash are as follows:
(The number of stored files + 1) X approx. 26MByte
The number of storable files is automatically calculated and the MAX
value is shown when AUTO BACKUP SET display appears.
Four ways to perform the automatic backup are available:
“Cyclic backup”, “Backup when switching modes”, “Backup
when start-up”, and “Backup when inputting specified
signals”.
The automatic backup can be performed only when the
robot is not during playback, and the robot is stopped.
Automatic backup function can be set from the command
of the optional high speed ethernet server function.
