3. Recommendation for Backing Up Latest Data

This product uses nonvolatile memory to store t he position table and parameters. Normally the memory
will retain the stored data even after the power is disconnected. However, the data may be lost if the
nonvolatile memory becomes faulty.
We strongly recommend that the latest position table and parameter data be backed up so that the data can
be restored quickly when the controller must be replaced for a given reason.
The data can be backed up using the following methods:

[1] Save to a storage medium such as a hard disk using PC software.
[2] Create a position table sheet or parameter sheet and keep a written record of backup.
