Two data save solutions are provided:
Saving Adjustment Parameters
-
All modifications of the adjustment parameters from the Control Expert process control screens update the current and initial values.
-
Modifying an adjustment parameter from the application or from an animation table affects the current value but does not modify the initial value. The SAVE_PARAM explicit instruction must be used to save this new value.
-
On cold restart (%S0) and project loading, the current parameters are replaced by the initial parameters.
Premium PLCs provide the option of saving the project (program and data memory) on a Backup card. The content of this card can reload the RAM memory.
NOTE: A backup card cannot be used if the Premium PLC is already using a PCMCIA card.
