Procedure using the FUNCT button
You can save the service data to the SIMATIC Memory Card on the SIMATIC Drive
Controller with the FUNCT button. Before reading the data, make sure that there is sufficient
memory space on the SIMATIC Memory Card in the SIMATIC Drive Controller.
There are two basic methods for reading out service data:
● Reading out service data in the STOP or RUN state of the SIMATIC Drive Controller
● Reading out service data during SIMATIC Drive Controller startup
Reading service data in STOP or RUN allows you to back up the data quickly and easily on
a memory card. If backup is no longer possible (due to a persistent error, for example), you
can also back up the service data during startup immediately after switch-on.
