Commissioning
8.6 Deleting data
The technology packages and user data (configuration data, programs, parameterizations) that
were previously backed up to the micro memory card using the "Copy RAM to ROM" menu
command will be transferred to the "non-volatile data" area of the SIMOTION C during the next
ramp-up. Thus, an existing configuration on the MMC is loaded to the SIMOTION device
following the memory reset.
Memory reset by means of SIMOTION SCOUT
The SIMOTION device for which overall reset is to be carried out must be online.
1. In SIMOTION SCOUT, open the Control Operating State dialog: Select the Target system >
Control Operating State menu command. Or click on Control Operating State in the toolbar.
2. Switch the SIMOTION device for which overall reset is to be carried out to STOP in the Control
Operating State dialog.
3. Select the SIMOTION device under Overall reset (MRES). Click the Execute switch. Confirm the
command by clicking "Yes".
The memory reset will now be performed.
Memory reset with the mode selector
Note
The operation for the memory reset with the toggle switch is described below. The operation
with the key-operated switch of the C230-2 is similar to the operation with the toggle switch.
Proceed as follows (see following figure):
1. Set the mode selector to STOP.
2. Move the switch to MRES and hold the switch in this position until the STOP LED changes from
flashing to steady illumination.
3. Within 3 seconds, you must release the switch and return it to the MRES position. The
memory reset will now be performed. The SIMOTION C completed the memory reset when
the STOP LED lights up permanently.
The SIMOTION C has reset the memory.
