Using The Internal Flash Rom - Yamaha SRCP30 User Manual

10-8 Using the internal flash ROM

When you set parameters using the TPB or POPCOM (options) or via the RS-232C, the parameter
data stored in the RAM inside the SRCP30 controller is rewritten and the robot operates based on this
parameter data written in the RAM. The SRCP30 controller also has an internal flash ROM for
backup of this parameter data in the RAM. The parameter data backed up in the flash ROM can be
loaded back into the RAM.
n
NOTE
The SRCP30 controller system backup battery retains the data in the RAM.

NOTE
The use of a flash ROM is supported in TPB Ver. 12.51 and later versions.

parameter data in the flash ROM if you turn the SRCP30 controller off without saving the changes into the flash
ROM.
