3. All files in the memory module are erased.
4.
Parameter 31-43 Erase_MM setting returns to [0] No function.

5.9.8 Transfer Performance and Indications

The time for transferring different data between the drive and the memory module is different, refer to the following table.
Table 21: Transfer Performance
Data file Time
Firmware file
• It takes around 2 minutes for uploading data from the drive to the memory module.
• It takes around 6 minutes for downloading data from the memory module to the drive.
SIVP file Around 10 s.
Parameter file Around 5 s.
