Omron NSJ CONTROLLERS - 03-2008 Operation Manual page 239

Replacing the System Program
Transferring Data
Use the DIP switch on the rear panel of the NSJ Controller to set the operating mode for data transfer to auto-
matic download (transfers data from the Memory Card to the NSJ Controller), automatic upload (transfers data
from the NSJ Controller to the Memory Card), or manual transfer (user selects whether to download or upload).
Data can be transferred with the Memory Card when the Display Section is started up.
Note (1) Before transferring data, check that the system programs and screen data types match those in the
Display Section.
(2) Always reset the Display Section or turn ON the power again after changing the DIP switch setting.
(3) Do not perform the following operations while the Memory Card is being accessed. The data may
be damaged and the Memory Card may need to be formatted.
• Turn OFF the power to the NSJ Controller.
• Press the Display Section reset switch.
• Remove the Memory Card.
(4) Always remove the Memory Card as described in the following procedures.
If the Display Section system is damaged due to the power being turned OFF while a file is being written, or
other reason, using normal downloading to replace the system programs may not be possible. For details on
troubleshooting, refer to Errors on page 212.
DIP Switch (SW2)
The Memory Card can be divided into up to four areas, which are called banks.
The DIP switch on the rear panel of the NSJ Controller has six pins. The ON/OFF combination of these pins
specifies which transfer method is used.
Pin No.
1 Specifies bank 1 when transferring. (ON: Specifies bank 1.)
2 Specifies bank 2 when transferring. (ON: Specifies bank 2.)
3 Specifies bank 3 when transferring. (ON: Specifies bank 3.)
4 Specifies bank 4 when transferring. (ON: Specifies bank 4.)
5 Specifies upload or download. (ON: Upload, OFF: Download)
6 Specifies manual or automatic transfer. (ON: Manual, OFF: Automatic)
Banks are automatically created under the following conditions.
• When data is transferred to the Memory Card using the CX-Designer transfer program.
• When data is transferred (uploaded) from the NSJ Controller.
Note (1) When transferring data, only one bank can be specified. Set only one of pins 1 to 4 to ON.
(2) The NSJ Controller will operate normally when the DIP switch is set to a combination other than one
specifying automatic upload, download, or manual transfer.
(3) When data has already been stored in the banks of the Memory Card and uploading is executed,
the previous data in the specified bank will be deleted. Always check the data stored in the banks
before uploading.
(4) If the \BANK@\DATA and \BANK@\SYSTEM are created manually in the Memory Card, and used
for purposes other than transferring data, when uploading is performed, the data in the folders will
be deleted, and the data in the Display Section will be copied to the folders. Therefore, do not use
\BANK@\DATA or \BANK@\SYSTEM when creating folders in the Memory Card.
(5) Set all pins to OFF when using normal operation.
