1 Installation
When the operator terminal is started with a formatted IFC MC card installed,
the system detects if the memory card is formatted as a memory expansion card
or as a backup card. The backup function makes it easy to, for example, copy
projects between different terminals.
The system program (operating system/firmware) in the operator terminals
must be of the same version if IFC MC is used as a backup card to copy projects
or files between different terminals.
The memory card can only be read and written to by the terminal, and not by a
personal computer.
This chapter describes how to mount the memory card in the terminal.
1.1 Installation of one expansion card
Perform the following steps to mount the IFC MC expansion card:
1. Switch the terminal power off.
2. Make sure that the ESD protection is good.
3. Remove the cover plate on the rear of the terminal, and the two expansion
plates on the short side. In terminals equipped with two expansion slots, the
slots are called Slot 1 and Slot 2. In terminals with one expansion slot, it is
called Slot 1.

Slot 2

Installation

4. Put the jumper J1 on the expansion card in the position SLOT 1 if the
expansion card is mounted in Slot 1, and in position SLOT 2 if the card is
mounted in Slot 2.
5. Mount the expansion cables with the components of the expansion card
placed upwards. One of the expansion cables is mounted between X1 on the
CPU card and X1 on the expansion card, and the other cable between X2
on the CPU card and X2 on the expansion card.
6. Fasten the card with the spacers or the screws. Use the screws if the expan-
sion card is mounted in Slot 1, and the spacers if the card is mounted in
Slot 2.
7. Check that the expansion cable is correctly mounted.
8. Mount the cover plates.

1.2 Installation of two expansion cards
Two expansion cards can be mounted in some terminals. They are mounted in
parallel to the connector on the CPU card in the terminal. Two expansion cards
can be connected via one expansion cable since there is a parallel contact on the
cable. The connector in the middle is used for the expansion card placed in Slot
1 and the end connector is used for the expansion card placed in Slot 2. If only
one card is used either connector can be used.
The connector X1 on the expansion card in Slot 2 is connected to the connector
X1 and the CPU card in the terminal via the X1 connector on the expansion
card in Slot 1. If the X2 connector on the CPU card in the terminal is used by
any or both cards, this connector is connected to the X2 connector on the
expansion card.
When two expansion cards are mounted in the same terminal the card in Slot 1
is mounted with the distances and the card in Slot 2 with the screws in the dis-
tances.
Note!
Only one IFC MC can be used in the terminal.

2 Settings in the programming tool
Perform the following steps to use a PCMCIA flash memory card:
1. Install the IFC MC card in the terminal according to chapter 1.
2. Insert the flash memory card in the IFC MC card.
3. Configure the expansion card in the programming tool for the operator
terminal according to the following description.
2.1 Define slot
1. Select Setup/Peripherals.

Settings in the programming tool

2. Select the slot defined with jumper J1 on the expansion card and click Edit.
3. Select type of expansion card, in this case IFC MC.

Settings in the programming tool
Beijer Electronics 14
4. Select Settings to state what function the memory card will be formatted
for, and the size of the memory card.
The memory card can be formatted either for memory expansion or for
backup. The project memory in the terminal will be extended if the card is
formatted for memory expansion. If the card is formatted for backup, it will
be used as a backup card for storage of projects and recipes.
5. Select alternative and click OK.
6. Click OK once more to confirm settings and then click Exit.

Settings in the programming tool
15 Beijer Electronics
2.2 Transfer the settings
The formatting of the memory card is made when the project is transferred from
the programming tool to the operator terminal. When a project is transferred,
the terminal detects the setup parameters, and formats the memory card
according to those.
Formatting of the card takes some time (one to two minutes), and can cause
transfer time-out. Restart the transfer when the formatting is done, or adjust the
time-out under Transfer/Comm Settings in the programming tool.
Note!
Settings for the expansion card can also be made under Setup in the terminals.
Select slot and select IFC MC from the dialog. In MemCard maintenance the card
can be formatted, and projects and recipes can be transferred between the card
and the terminal memory.
See the manual for the operator terminals for further information.

Functions for the memory card
Beijer Electronics 16
3 Functions for the memor card
3.1 Backup
If the card is formatted as a backup card, projects and recipes can be transferred
to and from the memory card either during run-time by using the function or
touch keys, or via Setup in the operator terminal. This makes it possible to create
backup copies of projects and recipes stored in the terminal. Projects and recipes
stored on the memory card can also be reused, by installing the card in other ter-
minals.
Transferring projects and recipes via function and touch ke s
Defining function and touch keys in the terminal project to the following func-
tions makes it possible to transfer projects and recipes between the terminal and
the memory card. For more information about the function and touch keys we
refer to the manual for the operator terminals.
Function Description
Save recipe on
memory card
Save (a copy of) a recipe in the terminal to the memory
card, configured for backup.
Load recipe from

Load a recipe from the memory card, configured for backup,
to the terminal.

memory card, configured for backup.
Load project from

Load a project from the memory card, configured for
backup, to the terminal.

Transferring projects and recipes via the terminal Setup menu
Select Setup/MemCard maintenance/MemCard transfer. Select one of the fol-
lowing functions:
3.2 Memor expansion
If the card is formatted for memory expansion the project memory in the termi-
nal will be extended. This can be used to run projects in the terminal requiring
more memory than the standard memory, e.g. projects with a lot of blocks,
symbols and trends. Also recipes can be stored in the memory card, but they can
not be moved to other terminals like recipes stored on a memory card formatted
for backup. A memory card formatted for memory expansion should not be
removed from the terminal during run-time (RUN).
Once the memory card is formatted as a memory expansion card, the terminal
runs as usual with the larger memory, without additional settings.
Function Description

memory card.

terminal.
