To transfer the Unit operation settings for the EtherCAT Slave Terminal and the application data
for the NX Units, clear the selections of the following check boxes on the Synchronization Pane.
These items are not transferred (none of these items are synchronized).
• CJ-series Special Unit parameters and EtherCAT slave backup parameters
• Slave Terminal Unit operation settings and NX Unit application data.
3
From the Comparison Results Dialog Box, select the EtherCAT Slave Terminal as a transfer
item, and then click the Transfer To Controller Button.
An execution confirmation dialog box is displayed.
4
Click the Yes Button.
The settings are transferred from the Sysmac Studio to the EtherCAT Coupler Unit so that they
match. When the transfer is completed, the Slave Terminal is restarted.
Before the transfer begins, you can run a check on the Sysmac Studio to see if the configuration data is
the same. This will compare the EtherCAT network configuration and the Unit configuration for the
EtherCAT Slave Terminal, which were created offline, with the actual configuration of the EtherCAT net-
work and the Units in the EtherCAT Slave Terminal.
Refer to Comparing and Merging with Actual Unit Configuration of the Slave Terminal on page 9-25
under 9-2-7 Sysmac Studio Functions Used as Required on page 9-25.
Additional Information
• You can connect the Sysmac Studio to the USB port on the EtherCAT Coupler Unit to trans-
fer the Slave Terminal parameter settings to the Slave Terminal. In this case, you cannot
transfer the CPU Unit user program and other data.
• You can also transfer only the Unit operation settings to the EtherCAT Coupler Unit and NX
Units without using the synchronization function of the Sysmac Studio. In this case, the set-
tings are transferred to one Unit at a time. Refer to A-2-2 Transferring the Unit Operation Set-
tings on page A-6 for details.
Precautions for Correct Use
• If the comparison is done with the Sysmac Studio connected and synchronized with the CPU
Unit, you cannot compare the settings that are downloaded to the EtherCAT Slave Terminal.
Refer to 9-4-2 Comparing Settings on page 9-36 to compare the EtherCAT Slave Terminal
settings.
• In the following cases, the EtherCAT Slave Terminal is restarted after the transfer is com-
pleted: when the transfer is done without using the synchronization function of the Sysmac
Studio through the NJ-series CPU Unit or when the Sysmac Studio is connected to the USB
port on the EtherCAT Coupler Unit. The restart may cause the EtherCAT master to detect an
error. In this case, you must reset the error on the EtherCAT master.
• When the Slave Terminal is restarted, all of the Units on the Slave Terminal perform the same
operation as when the power supply is cycled. Refer to the manuals for the specific Units for
the operation that is performed when the power supply is turned ON.
