Copy or Restore Drive Parameters

The parameters.csf file contains a copy of the drive parameters.

To store this parameter set:

Copy this file and store in any desired location.

To restore a parameter set:

Copy a previously saved .CSF file to this directory.

The .CSF file is the same format as used by Drive Explorer, Drive Tools
and other Rockwell Automation tools associated with the PowerFlex
family of drives.

Reports Directory

The reports sub-directory is further broken into two sub-directories (

Figure 72

).

The PRINTOUT subdirectory contains all the reports that are formatted
to be used by the standard printer on the drive. These reports are simple
ASCII text files.

The DATA subdirectory contains reports that are formatted in the CSV
(Comma Separated Variable) format which allows programs such as Excel
to open them directly as a spreadsheet.

All of these reports are generated by the Drive on demand. For example, copy a
report of the drive variables, and then make a second copy of the same report, the
contents of the two reports may be different. This is because the report is
generated at the time the copy is made and values may have changed between the
two requests.

Card Directory

The CARD directory shows the contents of the SD Card. With the exception of
the DOWNLOAD sub-directory, the entire card is read only.

The only directory which the user may wish to access directly is the ‘Manuals’
directory. Within this directory are located .PDF files pertaining to the users
drive.
