Replacing modules (spare part scenario)

8.2.1

Parts replacement for SIMOTION D4x5-2

Kernel/firmware ≥ V4.3
As of SIMOTION V4.3, a module replacement is detected by the controller on the basis of the
serial number. This automatically deletes the non-volatile data and transfers the data backed
up on the CF card to the controller. See Section Replacing modules in the spare part
scenario (Page 114).
Kernel/firmware V4.2
If a used D4x5‑2 is used for the module replacement, we recommend that the non-volatile
SIMOTION data be deleted on the used D4x5‑2.
Two options are available for this.
Table 8-1
Option
Module memory reset
Deleting and restoring non-vola‐
tile SIMOTION data
NOTICE
Unintentional restoration of the default settings instead of memory reset
With a Power OFF/ON, "Restore default settings" is performed instead of "Memory reset" in
switch position "3" (MRES) of the mode switch.
To avoid and unintentional/accidental deletion of the project data on the CF card, we
recommend that the non-volatile SIMOTION data be deleted using the service selector switch.
Restore default settings deletes all the project data on the CF card!
