Operator Interface
Changes made to the diagnostic list setup are not permanent unless they are saved
to the NVRAM in the drive. Upon exiting the DIAGNOSTICS screen
(
), you will be prompted to save the changes to NVRAM. Refer to the
section
for further details.
Flash Memory Transfers
Flash memory is used to store data in a non-volatile environment that is it is not
lost when power is removed. The operator interface contains flash memory in
two forms. The first is built into the operator interface. This form of flash is used
to store the operator interface’s firmware and parameters from the drive. This
information can also be stored on a removable flash memory card.
This second form of flash allows the data from one drive to be physically
transferred to another drive for loading. All files on the flash card use a DOS
format thus can be read or written by any PC that contains a PCMCIA drive.
Flash memory cards which are supported are those that contain the following
memory chips from INTEL:
•
28F010
•
28F020
•
28F008SA
•
28F016SA
These chips are used in the following memory cards available from Rockwell
Automation:
•
2711-NM11
•
2711-NM24
•
2711-NM12
•
2711-NM28
•
2711-NM14
•
2711-NM216
This section describes how you will transfer information between these two forms of
flash memory and the drive. You will learn how to:
•
Format a flash card.
•
Look at the directory of files on a flash card containing the DOS file
format.
•
Select a program (firmware) from the flashcard and load it into the
operator interface.
•
Save the parameters from the drive on the flash card or in the operator
interface.
•
Download parameters to the drive from a flash card or that previously
saved in the operator interface.
•
Load a language module from the flash card.
