The following message may appear on some controllers such as XSEL-K Controller when the power is turned on. Either touch Return button or press ESC key to show the main menu window, and operations that do not require servo-on in the condition of switched off can be performed. ME0325-4A...
5. How to Save Data Since the Controller adopts flash memory, there is a storage area by battery backup and a storage area by flash memory according to the data to be stored. In addition, even if data is transferred from the PC software or Teaching Pendant, the data is only to be written in memory as shown in the chart below and the data is erased by power-off or controller reset.
Page 50
Since the program, parameter, and symbol will be read from flash memory at restart time, the data in memory becomes the original data before editing unless the data is written in flash memory. The controller always operates according to the data in memory (within the dotted box) excluding parameters.

Save the data during the Edit data with PC or Save data even after the power is on and delete...
Caution Cautions in data transfer and flash writing Never shut OFF the main power while the data is transmitting and writing into flash. Data may be lost and controller may be rendered inoperable. Cautions concerning the increase in the number of positions The number of position data items has been raised to 20,000 in the XSEL-P/Q and PX/QX controllers for the increased memory capacity (with gateway function).
