Downloading, Uploading and Comparing Data

4-3-2 Uploading (Transfer from LC)

The function block data in the Loop Controller can be transferred to the comput-
er.
The following functions are executed in the upload.
• Function block data (i.e., LCU/LCB elements and function groups) can be
transferred from the RAM in the Loop Controller to the computer.
• Tag data, comment data, and block diagram data can be transferred from a
Memory Card or internal flash memory to the computer (refer to 4-9 Transfer-
ring Tag and Comment Data for details) (see note).
Note This function is supported for the LCBjj only.
The following two types of data uploading are available.
1) Upload New (New Transfer from Loop Controller to Computer)
A new function block file will be created and the function block data in the Loop
Controller will be saved in it. Function block data in units of LCU/LCB elements
can be read in this method.
Select this method if there is no function block file as a base of the function block
data in the Loop Controller.
