Data Backup 5
5Data Backup
The user programs, I/O memories, and other data in the Coordinator Module
and Motion Control Modules is backed up either by a super capacitor or flash
memory, as listed in the following table.
The data backup time of the super capacitor is given in the following table and
shown in the following graph.
Note 1. The times give above assume that the capacitor is completely charged.
Power must be supply to the FQM1 for at least 20 minutes to completely
charge the capacitor.
2. The backup time of the super capacitor is reduced as the capacitor ages.
It is also affected by the ambient temperature. Use portion of the DM Area
backed up by the super capacitor only for data that is to be held during mo-
