Restoring the NVRAM data
The SINAMICS NVRAM data can only be restored when none of the connected drives has a
pulse enable.
When restoring, the PMEMORY.ACX file is accessed first. If this is available and is error-
free, it is loaded. If no PMEMORY.ACX file is available or is corrupt, the PMEMORY.BAK file
is loaded (if available and error-free).
Restoration of the NVRAM data can be performed manually and automatically:
Automatic restoration at module replacement
● SINAMICS detects whether the control unit has been replaced on the basis of the serial
● In this case, the NVRAM of the used control unit is deleted first after POWER ON.
If there is an error-free PMEMORY.ACX or PMEMORY.BAK file on the CompactFlash card,
the data is then loaded to the NVRAM.
If no error-free backup file is available, power-up is as for SINAMICS < V4.5. A fault is not
issued and any existing "corrupt" backup files are not deleted.
Manual restoration
The manual restoration of the NVRAM data is performed by setting parameter p7775 to 2.
If the backup file (ACX or BAK) is error-free is, a warm restart is performed. The contents of
the NVRAM are deleted first and then the data is loaded from the backup file to the NVRAM.
The following are not loaded:
● CU operating hours counter
● CU temperature and
● Safety logbook
Parameter p7775 is set to 0 at the end of the restoration.
If the backup files are corrupt or no backup exists, the job is acknowledged with an error
value in parameter p7775.
