Saving Controller Settings to Flash Memory

Your 12 station controller uses a new technology called flash memory. This type of memory writes and reads like normal memory, but the advantage is that the data is retained after power is shut down. If you alter any parameter, the controller saves the new data to flash memory. This procedure takes several seconds and takes all the processor time. For this reason, the controller does not write to flash memory while running. Any changes to load times are saved when you press the STOP key and the controller shuts down completely.

Note: Let the controller save parameter changes to flash memory completely before you shut down the controller.

It is also possible for a write error to occur during this operation. If this occurs, the system always saves a backup of the data. See the Maintenance Section for instructions on how to restore the previous settings.
