B3 Button Restore


  • PCMM2G: Currently does not support controller restore using the B3 menu button.

One of the functions accessible from the B3 button is restoring the controller and AKD PDMM's drive.

  • The Restore function restores and load files onto the controller from an SD card.
  • This function is shown in the 7-segment display as rEStorE.
  • Pressing B2 selects the function.
    • This function does not initiate automatically.
    • B2 must be pressed again to confirm the process.
  • The 7-segment display flashes a y, prompting for confirmation.
    • Press B2 again confirms the function.
      The data transfer begins.
    • If the function is not confirmed within 10 seconds the action is canceled.

The data restored from the SD card includes:

  • AKD PDMM or PCMM configurations (auto-start and IP address).
  • Network configuration.
  • PLC Application (including ECAT XML configuration, cam tables, etc.)
  • Retain Variables.
  • Shared Directory settings.
  • User Data tab.
  • Web server and SSH user accounts configuration.
