The diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data is backed up to the CompactFlash
Card during power-up, provided that this is still possible and is not prevented by HW
defects, for example. The status LEDs indicate the backup process on the
SIMOTION D410 as follows:
– Backup in progress: RUN/STOP LED flickers yellow
– Backup complete: RUN/STOP LED flickers green
setting.
You must use a text editor and may not use any formatting in the text.
