Save Module
This operation saves the selected module to the controller, with the last filename used to load or save
the module.
• This function is only available from the context menu when there are unsaved changes to the
selected module.
• Module names are temporary and are not saved to memory. When you save a module, the
programs it contains are saved with their respective names; the Module name is not saved.
When you reopen the file to which the module programs were saved, Adept DeskTop opens a
module that has the same name as the first file in the module.
Save All Modules
This operation saves all the modules to the controller, with the last filename used to load or save each
module.
Saving Programs in MicroV+
In MicroV+ programs are not saved to individual files. You cannot save only selected programs to the
controller: all programs and data are saved to the contents of the NVRAM, overwriting existing data.
• MicroV+ programs are loaded from NVRAM into RAM, and saved from RAM into NVRAM.
• When the programs are saved into NVRAM, any existing programs are overwritten by the
programs being saved.
• To avoid overwriting existing programs, you must first load all programs from NVRAM to
RAM, create your new programs, and then save all programs back into NVRAM.
