Procedures
●
Parameter download is the process of the DSD 406/412 drive
sending all of its settable parameter values (i.e. the .PAR file) to
a computer. This process can be used for memory backup. A
parameter download is the only data transfer process that can
occur while the drive is running a motor.
NOTE
The DSD 406 / 412 can not be running a motor while uploading
parameters or a program. It cannot also be running a motor if a
program download is occurring. The PAC program stops
execution during this time.
To perform an upload or download use function # 992. This will allow
you to upload or download PAC programs and parameters. The
following steps explaining how to perform these operations from the
Command/Display Unit, SCDU, resident on the drive:

press the DATA/FCTN key.
