3.3.2 System Startup when Adding Electronic Devices

Use the following procedure to start the system when adding SERVOPACKs, Optional Modules, and other electronic
devices.

1.

Back up applications.

Before adding the electronic devices, log on to the Machine Controller online using MPE720 and select Transfer
- All Files - From Controller to
MPE720 to create a backup of the application.

2.

Turn OFF the power to the Machine Controller.

Once the application has been backed up, log off from the Machine Controller and turn OFF the Machine Con-
troller power.

3.

Start the electronic device to be added.

Make the DIP and rotary switch settings for the device to be added. For MECHATROLINK slaves, make the
switch settings, and turn ON the power to the slave. Confirm that the device starts correctly and then turn OFF
the power.

4.

Connect the electronic device.

Connect the electronic device to the Machine Controller and turn ON the power to all the MECHATROLINK
slaves.

After changing the application by editing ladder programs or changing parameter settings, always save the
changes to the flash memory. If the Machine Controller’s power is turned OFF without having saved the
changes in the application to the flash memory, the changed data will be lost from inside the Machine Con-
troller. If this happens, load the application saved in the personal computer to the Machine Controller (or the
motion board for MP2500, MP2500M, MP2500D, and MP2500MD) and save it to the flash memory.
You are recommended to back up the application whenever convenient. The procedure is given below.
MPE720: Log on online to the Machine Controller, then select Transfer - All Files - From Controller to

MPE720.
