2.6 Program Memory and Devices
2.6.2 Memory operations and latched (battery or EEPROM backed) devices
(power ON/OFF and RUN/STOP)
1. Backup operation
The operations of the data memory, bit device memory and program memory in FX3S/FX3G/FX3GC/FX3U/FX3UC PLCs
are classified as shown below:
1) Types of program memory
*1. Symbolic information is supported in the FX
3U/FX3UC PLCs Ver. 3.00 or later.
*2. The contents of the program memory and device values are not backed up correctly in FX
3U/FX3UC PLCs
when the battery voltage becomes lower than the holding voltage if a memory cassette is not attached.
2) Types of word device memory
a) FX
3S PLC
*3. Some devices are cleared when the PLC status switches from STOP to RUN.
→ For special data registers, refer to Chapter 37.
*4. The clock data is held by the electricity charged in the large-capacity capacitor built in the PLC.
When the voltage of the large-capacity capacitor becomes low, the clock data is not held correctly.
The capacitor can hold the clock data for 10 days (when the ambient temperature is 25
°
C
) in the full charge state
(achieved by powering ON the PLC for 30 minutes or more).
