9.3 Automatic Backup Function
Backup when the NX 100 starts up
Since the automatic backup process is added to the NX100 start-up process, a few extra sec-
onds are needed to start up the NX100.
Backup when Specific Signal is Input
While the NX 100 memory is edited such as overwriting, the backup operation becomes an
error even if there is an input to a specific signal (#40350). To start the specific input backup,
perform it while the robot program is stopped and a job or file is not being modified.
Also, since the signal input is detected on the leading edge, turn the signal to "0" if it is already
"1", then return to "1" again.
Overwriting Limit in CompactFlash
The number of times that the CompactFlash can be overwritten is limited to approx. 100,000
times. Because frequent backup operations may shorten the life of CompactFlash, the num-
ber of backup times should be minimized as much as possible.
