Replacing modules (spare part scenario)

7.2.1

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 CompactFlash card to the controller. See Section Module replacement
(Page 103).
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 7- 1
Option
Module memory reset
Deleting and restoring non-
volatile SIMOTION data
NOTICE
With a Power OFF/ON, "Restore factory settings" is performed instead of "Memory reset" in
switch position "3" (MRES) of the mode selector switch.
Restore factory settings deletes all the project data on the CompactFlash card!
To avoid and unintentional/accidental deletion of the project data on the CompactFlash
card, we recommend that the non-volatile SIMOTION data be deleted via the Service
selector switch.
