Parameter Backup

The Parameter Backup option is used to export parameters from one drive to
another or to make a backup of the drive parameters. Uploading to the panel stores
all drive parameters, including up to four user sets, to the Control Panel. Selectable
subsets of the backup file can then be restored/downloaded from the control panel to
the same drive or another drive of the same type (e.g. from ACSM1 Motion to
ACSM1 Motion and from ACSM1 Speed to ACSM1 Speed).
In the Parameter Backup option, you can:
• Copy all parameters from the drive to the control panel with MAKE BACKUP TO
PANEL. This includes all defined user sets of parameters and internal (not
adjustable by the user) parameters such as those created by the ID Run.
• View the information about the backup stored in the control panel with SHOW
BACKUP INFO. This includes e.g. version information etc. of the current backup
file in the panel. It is useful to check this information when you are going to
restore the parameters to another drive with RESTORE PARS ALL to ensure that
the drives are compatible.
• Restore the full parameter set from the control panel to the drive using the
RESTORE PARS ALL command. This writes all parameters, including the internal
non-user-adjustable motor parameters, to the drive. It does NOT include the user
sets of parameters.
Note: Use this function only to restore the parameters from a backup or to restore
parameters to systems that are compatible.
• Restore all parameters, except motor data, to the drive with RESTORE PARS
NO-IDRUN.
• Restore only motor data parameters to the drive with RESTORE PARS IDRUN.
• Restore all user sets to the drive with RESTORE ALL USER SETS.
• Restore only user set 1...4 to the drive with RESTORE USER SET 1...RESTORE
USER SET 4.
