Omron NJ Series User Manual

9 Backup Functions
9-6
NJ-series CPU Unit Software User’s Manual (W501)
The following data is backed up. This section describes the backup functions based on the following
data groups for the backup data.
*1 The system-defined variables are not included.
*2 A part or all of the set parameters are not backed up for some EtherCAT slave models. For the details on the
target EtherCAT slaves for the data backup function, refer to 9-8-4 EtherCAT Slaves for Which You Can Back
Up Data on page 9-38.
Precautions for Safe Use
Precautions on the Absolute Encoder Home Offset
The absolute encoder home offsets are backed up with a Battery in the CPU Unit as absolute
encoder information. If any of the following conditions is met, clear the absolute encoder home
offsets from the list of data items to restore, and then restore the data. Then, define the absolute
encoder home again. If you do not define home, unintended operation of the controlled system
may occur.
• The Servomotor or Servo Drive was changed since the data was backed up.
• The absolute encoder was set up after the data was backed up.
• The absolute data for the absolute encoder was lost.
