Parameter Load/Save

To copy a configuration (all the device parameters that are stored in the device's nonvolatile memory) from one device to another, click the Save to File button on the first device and then use the Load from File on the second device. If you wish the second device to keep these new parameters after the device is turned off, then you can save the parameters to the nonvolatile memory with Save To Device.

Check Add non-volatile save instructions to file to append a DRV.NVSAVE to the end of the saved file. Any load of this file will automatically save the parameters in NV RAM.

Check Save to non-volatile when loaded to force an NV save after a file is loaded.


  • When loading a parameter file to a new device, if MOTOR.AUTOSET = 0 then motor parameters should be checked to make sure they are properly configured for the motor on the new device.

Description

Save To File

Copies all the device parameters and creates a file.

Load From Device

Sets all the device parameters within the device to the values contained within the file you select.

Save to Device

Saves all device parameters into the nonvolatile memory of the device. Each time the device powers on, it will start with these saved parameters.

Factory Defaults

Returns all the device parameters back to their default values. Any changes you have made are lost.

Loading an Incompatible File

If the parameter file from a different model type is loaded to an AKD, a warning will display notifying the user, but the load can still be performed.
