2. Supported functions

This utility can do the following operations to FROM/SRAM data of CNC control unit from Open

CNC PC side.

 Operation on FROM

SAVE function : backs up the files stored in the FROM to any folder of PC.

DELETE function : deletes the files stored in the FROM.

LOAD function : restores the saved FROM files under any folder of PC into the

FROM of CNC.

Restored FROM file becomes effective after next power on cycle

of CNC.

 Operation on SRAM

BACKUP function : backs up whole contents of SRAM data to any folder of PC.

RESTORE function : restores the saved SRAM data to CNC.

3. Caution

A. CNC ID information is included in the FROM/SRAM data that is backed up by this utility.

So, the backed-up data cannot be restored to CNC other than the original CNC from which

the data is backed up as a general rule.

B. When SRAM data is backed up and SRAM data is restored using this utility, CNC must be

in the emergency stop state.

C. Please do the backup and the restore operation of SRAM data immediately after the power

supply is turned on.

Page 21. Overview On the control boards of CNC, Flash ROM modules (hereafter, “FROM”) and Static RAM modules (hereafter, “SRAM”) are mounted. In these FROM/SRAM modules, the important data that decides the CNC/PMC characteristic is stored. Typical data that stored in each module is as follows. A. FROM inc

Preparation to start In order to execute this utility application, HSSB driver and FOCAS2 libraries (FWLIB32.DLL, FWLIB160.DLL, FWLIB16W.DLL, FWLIBE1.DLL) have to be installed to the PC beforehand. Note) In case that HSSB connection is not used, HSSB driver and FWLIB160.DLL, FWLIB16W.DLL are not
Page 67. Operation This utility"FromUtil2.EXE" starts from the command line. The progress situation and the processing result are output to the command line screen and the specified log file. The command line syntax for FromUtil2.EXE is as follows: FromUtil2 [-nNode|-hHost:Port [-tTime]] [-lst|-sav|-del|-
