Commissioning (hardware) 2.5 User memory concept

CompactFlash Card

The CompactFlash Card contains the following data:

SIMOTION kernel

Technology packages (TP)

User data (units, configuration data, parameters, task configuration)

IP parameters (IP address, subnet mask, router address)

DP parameters (PROFIBUS DP address, baud rate)

2.5.3Operator actions and their impact on user memory

The next section describes the user actions identified in the "SIMOTION D410 memory model" by arrows and their impact on user memory.

Download SIMOTION SCOUT

The "Download" command transfers the following data from the Engineering System to the "volatile data" area:

User data (units, configuration data, parameters, task configuration)

Technology packages

The IP and DP parameters are furthermore saved to the "non-volatile data" area. The retain variables are initialized with their start values. This however, depends on the settings in SIMOTION SCOUT. Volatile data is lost if you shut down the SIMOTION D410 module after the download.

Copy RAM to ROM

The "Copy RAM to ROM" command is used on the ES to save the following data to the CompactFlash Card:

Technology packages and user data (units, configuration data, parameters, task configuration) of the "volatile data" area

Actual values are copied to the "volatile data" area, depending on the settings in

SIMOTION SCOUT

Note

The "Copy RAM to ROM" command does not save the actual values of the retain variables to the CompactFlash Card:
