Data functions

Once a card reader has been connected and successfully installed, the data on the memory
card can be accessed in the same way as data stored on other PC storage media (e.g.,
access to hard disk, memory stick, etc.). To access its data, the memory card must first be
removed from the Control Unit CU320-2 and inserted in the card reader connected to the
PC.
The actual procedure for accessing the memory card data depends on the operating system
used.
8.20.11.3

Saving the memory card parameter settings

Following commissioning, it is advisable to back up the data on the memory card to an
external storage medium (hard disk, data carrier, etc.).
To do this, the memory card is read out via a card reader connected to a PC. Ensure that all
the files and directories are stored in the same form as on the memory card.
If necessary, the device status following commissioning of the drive can be restored by
importing the backed up data to the memory card.
Note
Possible plant shutdown by withdrawing or inserting the memory card during operation
If the memory card is withdrawn or inserted during operation, data can be lost, possibly
resulting in a plant shutdown.
• Only pull and plug the memory card when the Control Unit is disconnected from the
supply.
