C.BOOT SYSTEM
OVERVIEW
The boot system load the CNC system software (Flash ROM
DRAM), then starts it so that software can be executed.
The boot system provides the following maintenance functions for the
CNC:
(1) Registering a file in Flash ROM
A file is read from the FAT16-formatted memory card and
written to the flash memory.
(A FAT32-formatted memory card cannot be recognized.)
(2) Checking a file (series and edition) in Flash ROM
(3) Checking a file (series and edition) in Memory card
(4) Deleting a file from Flash ROM
(5) Deleting a file from Memory card
(6) Saving a file in Flash ROM to a Memory card
(7) Batch saving and restoration of files of parameters and programs
backed up by battery (SRAM area), to and from a Memory card
(8) Formatting of a Memory card
This manual describes the activation of the boot system, as well as the
screen displays and operation for the functions listed above.
CAUTION
1 This control unit supports the use of a Memory card
as an input/output device. The Flash ATA card is
available:
See the order list for details of the supported
Memory card types.
2 On a Memory card, only those files that are in the
root directory can be accessed for display, reading,
and writing. Those in subdirectories cannot be
used.
3 The time required to read or write each data item
varies depending on the Memory card type, the
status of use, and other factors.
4 For flash ATA cards, only those recommended by
FANUC are available.
5 When formatting a flash ATA card, use the quick
formatting method, which clears the file allocation
table and the directory information on the root
directory. An unformatted flash ATA card needs
to be formatted in FAT16 with a PC or the like. (A
FAT32-formatted ATA card cannot be recognized.)

CAUTION
1 Backup files will be created with a file name of
SRAMBAK.xxx, where xxx is replaced with a
number between 001 and 999 sequentially.
On the first Memory card, a backup file is created
with a name of SRAMBAK.001. If all data is not
contained on the single card, a backup file
containing the excess data is created with a name
of SRAMBAK.002 on the second Memory card.
In this way, you can divide data onto a maximum
of 999 Memory card for saving.
2 Check that the Memory card used for backup does
not contain a file with a name of SRAMBAK.xxx
before performing a BACKUP operation. You can
check a list of file names on a Memory card by
using the SYSTEM DATA LOADING function.
3 The Memory card used for backup needs to be
formatted in FAT16.
