Service selector switch (alternative)
To back up diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data using a service selector switch,
proceed as follows:
1. Set the service selector switch to "Diagnostics" (position "D").
The positions of the mode selector are not relevant (i.e. the set operating mode remains
unchanged).
The diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data can be created in STOP, STOPU,
and RUN states.

2. The diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data are backed up to the CF card.
Backup is displayed via the status LEDs as in the table below.
3. Once the backup is complete, switch the D4x5‑2 off.
4. Remove the CF card and reset the service selector switch to its original setting.

Procedure for backing up during startup
Procedure
Backing up diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data "during power-up" provides you
with diagnostic information without HTML pages / TO alarm information.
Backing up during startup is particularly advisable for SIMOTION devices that cannot run or
have crashed.
