1.1 Backing up, Converting, Restoring Data
This section describes the command for backing up the data of the NFCP100,
for converting it for the NFCP501/NFCP502, and for restoring it to the
NFCP501/NFCP502.
The converted file is shown below.
- Retain saved file
- Settings of the resource configurator
- DUONUS.PRP
Setting items that are not included in the NFCP100, will be the default value. If
necessary, set it.
- CPU duplex configuration
- SNTP server
- Ethernet port No.3 and No.4 for NFCP502
- SD card
TIP
- Control application, boot project and the source file is not a conversion target. These are compiled
and downloaded by the Logic Designer.
- FcxConvert command can not convert the file that was backed up from NFJT100. Re-set IO
setting by the resource configurator. Re-set DUONUS.PRP by the maintenance page.Retain
saved file can be restored without conversion.
●FcxBackup Command
This command backs up the target files from NFCP100 or NFJT100.
"BACKUP" folder will be created in the current directory.
Command: FcxBackup -all -u <User name> -p <Password>
<Host name or IP address>}
User name: User name of the administrator account.
Password: Password of the administrator account.
Host name or IP address:
Host name or IP address of the NFCP100.
E.g.: FcxBackup –all -u user01 -p abc123 192.168.0.1
TIP
- When you run the FcxBackup, FcxConvert and FcxRestore command in the command prompt,
move to the unzipped folder.
- The "-all" argument can be used FcxBackup command R3.10 or later.
- The "-u <user name>" and "-p <password>" argument can be used FcxBackup command R4.10 or
later. If you have changed the user name and password from the initial value, be sure to specify
them always.

TI 34P02K71-01E 4th Edition: Jun. 6, 2018-00
●FcxConvert Command
This command converts the FcxBackup command output file to NFCP501/NFCP502 file.
Command: FcxConvert.exe -t {new CPU type} -i {Source folder} -o {Destination
folder}
New CPU type:“NFCP501” or “NFCP502”
Source folder: “BACKUP”
Destination folder:
E.g. “BACKUP_NFCP501”
Please rename “BACKUP_NFCP501” into “BACKUP” when it is restored
to NFCP501/NFCP502.
E.g.: FcxConvert.exe -t NFCP501 -i BACKUP -o BACKUP_NFCP501
●FcxRestore Command
This command restores (downloads) the FcxConvert command output file to NFCP501/
NFCP502.
Command: FcxRestore {Host name or IP address}
Host name or IP address:
Host name or IP address of the NFCP501/NFCP502.
E.g.: FcxRestore 192.168.0.1
TIP
When restoring the file backed up from the NFCP100 and converted, to the NFCP501 /NFCP502, the
IP address of the backup source is set as the restore destination.
●FcxSaveRetain Command
This command saves, acquires, restores, and clears the retained data.
In this TI, only clear option is used. The command with "-c" option clears the retain data
on the SRAM. This command is used together with the FcxRestore command to ensure
that the backed up retained data is reflected in the SRAM.
Command: FcxSaveRetain -c {Host name or IP address}
Host name or IP address:
Host name or IP address of the NFCP501/NFCP502.
E.g.: FcxSaveRetain -c 192.168.0.1

1.2 Migrating the Control Application
This section describes procedure of migrate the control applications (project
on the Logic Designer) for NFCP100 and NFJT100 to NFCP501/NFCP502.
In Section 2 or later describes the procedure of the case you do not extend
retain data area fundamentally.
●Not expanding the retain data area (Migration)
- If the PLC type is IPC_40, this control application (project) can be used by re-compiling
without changing itself.
- If the PLC type is IPC_32 or IPC_33, re-create the resource with IPC_40, and re-
compile.
●Expanding the retain data area (Extend function)
- If the PLC type is IPC_40, re-create the resource with “FCFX_B”/ “FCFX_C”, and
re-compile.
- If the PLC type is “IPC_32” or “IPC_33”, re-create the resource with “IPC_40” and
“FCFX_B”, and re-compile.

TI 34P02K71-01E 4th Edition: Jun. 6, 2018-00
TIP
The [SAVE] button is not displayed in the maintenance mode.
If prior to R1.70, please save the retain data refer to the online help.
If the retain data area to extend, the data saved in Step A2 is not available in NFCP500.
●Step A3: Backing up the NFCP100
(1) In the command prompt window, change the current directory to the folder
containing the extracted conversion tools in Step A1.
Supposing that the conversion tools have been extracted to the folder C:¥temp,
type “cd C:\temp\NFCP500” and press the [Enter] key.
(2) In the command prompt window, type “FcxBackup -all -u <user name> -p
<password> <host name or IP address>,” and press the [Enter] key.
"BACKUP" folder will be created in the current directory.
e.g. C:\temp\NFCP500> FcxBackup -all -u user01 -p abc123
192.168.0.1
TIP
If already have a backup, you can skip this step.
●Step A4: Converting the backup files (except NFJT100)
(1) In the command prompt window, type “FcxConvert –t <new CPU type> -i
<Source folder> -o <Destination folder>,” and press the [Enter] key.
Some files for the NFCP501/NFCP502 are created to the destination folder.
e.g. C:\temp\NFCP500> FcxConvertp –t NFCP501 –i BACKUP
–o BACKUP_NFCP501
●Step A5: Exchanging the CPU module
(1) Remove the NFCP100 from the base module.
In the case of CPU duplex configuration, remove also the two.
(2) Transfer the Ethernet cable and the RS-233-C cable from NFCP100 to
NFCP501/NFCP502.
Attach the Ethernet cables to the same Ethernet port 1 or 2 before the
exchange.
(3) In the case of new goods NFCP501/NFCP502, start the resources configurator
to set the IP address.
(4) Insert the NFCP501/NFCP502 to the base module.
In the case of CPU duplex configuration, insert only the control side CPU
module in this step.
(5) In the case of new goods NFCP501/NFCP502, so the start-up in the IP address
setting mode, and set the IP address in the resource configurator.
After setting, you can exit the resources configurator.

(5) Make sure that it has been started in a maintenance mode, and exit the Web
browser.
●Step A7: Restoring to the NFCP500
(1) Rename "BACKUP" folder in Step A3 to another name.
(2) Rename the destination folder in Step A4 to "BACKUP".
(3) In the command prompt window, type “FcxSaveRetain -c <host name or IP
address>,” and press the [Enter] key.
The command with "-c" option only clears the retain data on the SRAM and
does not save the retain data.
e.g. C:\temp\NFCP500> FcxSaveRetain -c 192.168.0.1
(4)In the command prompt window, type “FcxRestore <host name or IP address>,”
and press the [Enter] key.
e.g. C:\temp\NFCP500> FcxRestore 192.168.0.1
(5) After restoring, change to the online mode in the maintenance page.
(6) Make sure that it has been started in online mode, and exit the Web browser.
TIP
The IP address of the restored NFCP501/NFCP502 is reflected the IP address of NFCP100.
If necessary, change the IP address. If field bus (NFLF111, NFLP121, NFLC121) are used, do the
following after Step A7 restore. Step A7-1: Exported by Resource Configurator, Step A7-2: Change IP
address, and Step A7-3: Imported by resource configurator.

●Step A9: Downloading the control application to the NFCP500
(1) If you have the user library project, copy the user library (mwt file) and the folder
named the same name as the library project into the library folder.
E.g.: Copy Userlib.mwt and Userlib folder into
“C:\YOKOGAWA\FCN-FCJ\LogicDesigner\Libraries”
If the user library is compressed in this project, it is also copied user library
when it is decompressed. If an existing project is present, it compares the
version information before overwriting, and select to overwrite or Save As.
Compile the project of the user library in the logic designer of R4 after thawing.
TIP
The user library is a project to which the user is to create your own reference. Library of APPF is not
included.
If you are not using the user library, this step is not necessary.
(2) Open the project (R1/R2/R3/R4) by the Logic Designer R4.
The projects in the format of R3 or earlier are converted automatically to R4
format.
TIP
The project of R4 format can’t be opened in the R1/R2/R3 Logic Designer.
(3) If the PLC type is defined in IPC_32 / IPC_33, re-create the resource (PLC type:
IPC_40). When you re-create the resource, copy and set the definition following
information on the logic designer.
- Copy of the task definition
- Copy of the Program POU instance definition
- Copy of the global variable definition
- Setting of target setting dialog
- Copy of the device label variable definition
- Copy of the software wiring definition
- Change of resource names
SEE ALSO
Detailed procedure of re-creating resources, refer to online help "Control Application Programming
Guide" - "Control application creating" - "Considerations in the control application programming" -
"Project data management."
TIP
If the retain data area to extend, re-create the resource (PLC type: IPC_40, Processer type: FCX_B
/FCX_C).
If the retain data area to extend, the data saved is not available in NFCP500.
If changing the processor type of existing resources, the retain data area will not be extended.

(4) Make the project by the Logic Designer R4.
(5) Perform offline download the control application to the NFCP501/NFCP502.
Also download the boot project and the source files as needed.
●Step A10: Executing APC (Duplex CPU only)
(1) After confirming the connection of Ethernet cable and the RS-233-C cable,
insert the other one CPU module for stand-by side.
(2) Run the APC. If APC automatic startup is disabled, run the APC from the
resource configurator.
TIP
In the control side and standby side CPU module, use the same model and same revision of basic
software.

Bring back the data that was backed up from the target equipment on site.
Check the operation and conversion work in-house equipment. And then,
work for the target equipment on site.
(1) In Step B1 to B16 describes the following procedure.
Without providing the same I/O configuration as the target device as an in-
house equipment, check the operation with a minimum configuration of
NFCP500, power supply and base module.
Then, reflect the results operation check in-house to NFCP500 in the field.
(2) In Step B1 to B10 and C11 to C14 describes the following procedure.
Prepare the same I/O configuration as the target device as an in-house
equipment, check the operation in-house.
Then, replace the NFCP500 used in the operation check in-house in the
field.
