Parameter sets
The method for saving changed settings in the servo drive has already been explained in
section 4.4.14
Permanent storage of the parameters
on page 61. In addition, the method
for saving the settings as a parameter file (DCO file) has also been briefly presented.
This section provides a detailed description of how you can save changed parameters,
how you can transfer them to other servo drives and how you can reset them to the factory
settings.
All of the functionalities of a parameter set are listed under
File/Parameter set
.
Metronix ServoCommander

can be used as an online parameterisation program.
However, it can also be used offline. In this case, changes will not be transferred to the
servo drive. Instead, only a parameter set file (DCO file) will be changed.

Online parameterisation: Overview

The following Figure 77 shows all of the setting options of the servo drive, i.e. the
parameter set management system:

The current parameter set of the servo drive is stored in the RAM. The RAM will be erased
when the power supply is switched off. To save the parameter set in a non-volatile
manner, it can be copied into the EEPROM (flash) by clicking the symbol shown above or
by selecting the corresponding menu item. The EEPROM retains its contents even if the
power supply is switched off.
