Backing Up Data And Series Commissioning - Siemens SIMATIC ET 200pro Series Operating Instructions Manual

Backing up data and series commissioning

Saving settings outside the inverter
After commissioning, your settings are saved in the inverter so that they are protected
against power failure.
We recommend that you additionally back up the settings on a storage medium outside the
inverter. Without backup, your settings could be lost if the inverter develops a defect.
The following storage media are available for your settings:
● Memory card
● PG/PC
● Operator panel
Note
Data backup using Operator Panels with USB connection with the PG/PC is not possible
If the inverter is connected with a PG/PC via a USB cable, you cannot backup data to a
memory card via an operator panel.
• Disconnect the USB connection between the PG/PC and inverter before you backup data
to the memory card via an operator panel.
Carrying out series commissioning
Series commissioning is the commissioning of several identical drives.
Precondition
The Control Unit to which the settings are transferred has the same article number and the
same or a higher firmware version as the source Control Unit.
Overview
You must proceed as follows to carry out series commissioning:
1. Commission the first inverter.
2. Back up the settings of the first inverter to an external storage medium.
3. Transfer the settings from the first inverter to an additional inverter via the data storage
medium.
