Using the control panel 111Parameter Backup optionThe Parameter Backup option is used to export parameters from one drive to anotheror to make a backup of the drive parameters. Uploading to the panel stores all driveparameters, including up to four user sets, to the control panel. Selectable subsets ofthe backup file can then be restored/downloaded from the control panel to the samedrive or another drive.In the Parameter Backup option, you can:• Copy all parameters from the drive to the control panel with MAKE BACKUP TOPANEL. This includes all defined user sets of parameters and internal (notadjustable by the user) parameters, such as those changed by the ID Run.• View the information about the backup stored in the control panel with SHOWBACKUP INFO. This includes, for example, version information etc. of the currentbackup file in the panel. It is useful to check this information when you are goingto restore the parameters to another drive with RESTORE PARS ALL to ensurethat the drives are compatible.• Restore the full parameter set from the control panel to the drive using theRESTORE PARS ALL command. This writes all parameters, including the internalnon-user-adjustable motor parameters, to the drive. It does NOT include the usersets of parameters.Note: Use this function only to restore the parameters from a backup or to restoreparameters to systems that are compatible.• Restore all parameters, except motor data, to the drive with RESTORE PARSNO-IDRUN.• Restore only motor data parameters to the drive with RESTORE PARS IDRUN.• Restore all user sets to the drive with RESTORE ALL USER SETS.• Restore only user set 1…4 to the drive with RESTORE USER SET 1…RESTOREUSER SET 4.
