(3) Important note on transferring an all programs file to the controller
[1] Transferring all program files to a controller at once will clear all existing programs No. 1 to 64 (or
programs No. 1 to 128 for the X-SEL-P/Q and PX/QX (with gateway function) compatible with
increased memory) or R/S, RX/SX, and RXD/SXD controllers. If necessary, back up all current
programs before the transfer.
[2] If the all programs file includes any program that contains symbols and the symbols are not defined
in the controller’s memory, an error will occur when the applicable program is transferred to the
controller. If an error occurs, none of the programs will be transferred to the controller. Therefore, if
the applicable symbol data is saved to a file, transfer the symbol definition file first. If there is no
symbol definition file, define the applicable symbols in the symbol edit window and then transfer the
definitions to the controller, before transferring the all programs file again.
[3] If the all programs file contains any error, the error window will be displayed and none of the
programs will be transferred to the controller. In this case, double-click the error shown in the error
window to open the program file that contains the applicable error. Correct the error, and then save
the file by overwriting. If multiple errors exist, correct all errors. When all errors have been corrected,
transfer the programs to the controller again. The procedure in [3] provides an important recovery
method for program files containing errors.
[4] The data saved by Program File Format 1 (normal format) can be transferred to the X-SEL-P/Q,
PX/QX controllers compatible with increased memory (with gateway function) or R/S, RX/SX, and
RXD/SXD controllers.
The following warning screen will be displayed. Clicking Yes will clear the program of No. 65 or later.
Clicking No will not change the program of No. 65 which is saved in the controller to transfer.
(The number of possible transferred step depends on the number of remaining step in the controller
to transfer.)
