*: The Memory Unit stores system program or screen data for one PT in each of areas (bank 0, bank 1). (The total data storage is for two PTs.) SW2-3 sets which of these two banks is used for automatic transmission.

In the following cases, a mode setting error occurs.

More than one of the SW1-1 to SW1-3 switches are set to ON.

None of the SW1-1 to SW1-3 switches are set to ON.

In the following case, a protect setting error occurs.

Transmitting to the write destination has been disabled by the setting for SW2-1 or SW2-2.

In the following cases, a data transmission error occurs.

An attempt is made to transmit data other than the system program to PT system program area.

An attempt is made to transmit the system program to PT screen data area.

For details on mode setting errors and protect setting errors, refer to Errors When Using a Memory Unit (page 45).

In this mode, system program or the screen data in the NT631/NT631C is forcibly written to the Memory Unit irrespective of the setting status of the NT631/NT631C.

This mode is convenient if the touch panel is broken and touch switch opera- tion is not possible, or if someone unfamiliar with touch switch operation at the operation site is using the system.

When screen data is written to the Memory Unit, the data that has been stored in the specified area up until that point is lost (if the data is written into only one Bank, the other Bank will not be affected).

Method of Execution

Use the following procedure to write the screen data in the NT631/NT631C to the Memory Unit by automatic transmission.
