DIAG button

Arrangement
The DIAG button is located behind the blanking cover on the SIMOTION D4x5-2.
Function
The diagnostics data and non-volatile data is backed up on the CF card via the DIAG button.
The DIAG button function therefore corresponds to the function of switch position "D" of the
Service selection switch.
Various options are available for backing up the data:
● Option 1: Backup during operation (in STOP/STOPU/RUN mode)
● Option 2: Backup during booting of the module
With option 1, the DIAG button only has to be pressed briefly to trigger the data backup. The
DIAG button is therefore preferable to switch position "D" of the Service selection switch.
With option 2, the DIAG button has to be pressed until the boot procedure is completed. As
this can take 20-30 seconds, switch position "D" is preferable here.

For detailed information on creating diagnostic data and backing up / restoring non-volatile
data, refer to the

RESET button

Arrangement
The RESET button is located behind the blanking cover on the SIMOTION D4x5-2.
Performing a reset operation
A reset causes the entire system to be reset and requires the system to be ramped-up again.
It is similar to a "Power On Reset" except that the 24 V power supply does not have to be
switched off.
