Chapter 5 - Configuring Impulse with an IDC Keypad

COPY Using the COPY Menu

Downloading project files between keypads and Impulse or between keypad and PC can save a significant amount of time when configuring your drive with an FP100 keypad.

Press COPY for the following two options:

	COPY
TO PAD	FRM PAD

FROM PAD

This option allows you to send the currently open project file to the drive. Answering YES to the send prompt will send the open project file and overwrite the current setup in the drive.

Send Current Setup?

YESNO

TO PAD

Allows you to retrieve the current setup from the drive. Answering YES to the retrieve prompt will extract the project file from the drive and make it the “open” file in the keypad. The extracted file is not saved to non-volatile memory and must be saved under EDIT > FILE > SAVE if the data is to be stored.

Retreve Drive Setup?

YESNO

Application Note: Keypads do not provide the same decimal-level precision as IDC’s Application Developer software. A project file created at higher precision will cause a “precision error message” when loaded into a keypad.
