1,2,3... 1. Install the Memory Card into the CPU Unit.
2. Initialize the Memory Card if necessary.
3. Name the file containing the data in the CPU Unit and save the contents in
the Memory Card.
4. Read the file that is saved in the Memory Card to the CPU Unit.
Automatically Transferring
Memory Card Files to the
CPU Unit at Power-up
Including Parameter File
1,2,3... 1. Install the Memory Card into the CPU Unit.
2. Set pin 2 of the DIP switch to ON.
3. Turn ON the power to the PLC. The files will be read automatically when
the power is turned ON.
Excluding Parameter File
1,2,3... 1. Install the Memory Card into the CPU Unit.
2. Set pin 2 of the DIP switch to ON.
3. The files are read automatically when the power is turned ON.
Reading/Writing Data
Files Using
FREAD(700)and
FWRIT(701)
1,2,3... 1. Install the Memory Card into the CPU Unit.
2. Initialize the Memory Card using a Programming Device.
3. Using the FWRIT(701) instruction, name the file of the specified I/O mem-
ory area, and save to the Memory Card.
