Normal / Module Load Switch
This switch has two positions: NORMAL and MODULE LOAD.
Normal Position
With this switch in the NORMAL
position, data is automatically
transferred from the Memory Module
to the instrument, on power up only.
This is also referred to as
downloading a database from the
Memory Module.
∆
CAUTION:
There are no partial
downloads. The existing database
in the controller will be
overwritten.
If the module is left on the controller
during normal operation, it allows the
module to accept updates to current
process parameters. Data does not
pass from the Module to the
Controller during normal operation.
Module Load Position
With the switch in MODULE LOAD
position, the entire database in the
Controller is automatically
transferred to the Memory Module.
This is also known as “UPLOAD”.
This transfer can only take place if
the Read/Write switch is in the
READ/WRITE position.

The current database
in the Memory Module will be
overwritten.

transferred successfully to the
module, the Controller display
indicates UPLOAD COMPLETE.
