Flash Memory Transfers
Flash memory is used to store data in a non-volatile environment that
is it is not lost when power is removed. The operator interface
contains flash memory in two forms. The first is built into the
operator interface. This form of flash is used to store the operator
interface’s firmware and parameters from the drive. This
information can also be stored on a removable flash memory card.
This second form of flash allows the data from one drive to be
physically transferred to another drive for loading. All files on the
flash card use a DOS format thus can be read or written by any PC
that contains a PCMCIA drive. Flash memory cards which are
supported are those that contain the following memory chips from
INTEL:
- 28F010
- 28F020
- 28F008SA
- 28F016SA.
These chips are used in the following memory cards available from
Rockwell Automation:
2711-NM11 2711-NM24
2711-NM12 2711-NM28
2711-NM14. 2711-NM216
This section describes how you will transfer information between these
two forms of flash memory and the drive. You will learn how to:
• Format a flash card.
• Look at the directory of files on a flash card containing the DOS
file format.
• Select a program (firmware) from the flashcard and load it into
the operator interface.
• Save the parameters from the drive on the flash card or in the
operator interface.
• Download parameters to the drive from a flash card or that
previously saved in the operator interface.
• Load a language module from the flash card.
You will access the Transfer operations from the Utility screen by
pressing the [F7] key. This results in the display of the screen shown
in Figure 3.87.
