Rockwell Automation 7000 PowerFlex Medium Voltage AC Drive (B Frame) - Classic Control - Manual (Page 144)

Operator Interface 3-65
7000 “B” Frame 7000-UM150I-EN-P – June 2013
WARNING: Any time the operator interface is powered up
with a flash card inserted which contains a valid firmware *.FMW
file, the operator interface will attempt to load new firmware (note
item ‘a’ above). For this reason, it is not advisable to leave a
memory card containing a firmware file in the operator interface,
after the firmware has been downloaded.
Parameter Transfers
The parameters used by the drive are stored within the drive itself.
The operator interface is used to review and modify these
parameters. When a Drive Control Board is changed, it is necessary
to re-enter the parameters into the new board. The operator interface
can simplify this process by reading all the parameters from the old
Drive Control Board and storing them either in the operator interface
or on a flash card. When the new board has been installed, the
previously stored parameters are then downloaded to the new board.
The flash card provides an added benefit when more than one drive
is using the same set of parameters. Parameters can be entered on
the first drive, then uploaded and stored on the flash card. The flash
card may then be taken to the remaining drives and the parameters
downloaded to those drives.
Note: This feature does not replace the saving of parameters to the
Drive NVRAM, refer to section Store/Retrieve Configuration.
After downloading parameters, they must still be saved within the
drive in order to make them permanent.
To transfer parameters, press the [F4] key from the TRANSFER
screen. The screen shown in Figure 3.92 will be displayed. (If
nothing happens, then you have not gained the required access to
modify the flash memory. Exit to the TRANSFER screen and refer
to the section entitled Enter/Modify an Access Level to gain
access). Within this screen it is possible to perform four different
parameter transfers.
