1 US N 111 1/9 Procedure: 10xx Series CNC Backup/Restore Procedures using NUMCOM Scope: The NUM 10xx Series CNC system has essential application specific files stored in various locations within the system. (See US117 10xx Series System Memory Map.) It is important to periodically backup this system memory to prepare for data loss due to system failures. The purpose of this document is to provide the user with a detailed step-by-step procedure for setting up the RS-232 communication link from the PC to the CNC and downloading/uploading the individual files necessary for a backup/restoration of the CNC. ** NOTE** This software package requires user interface on both the CNC and the PC. Datum offsets (shifts), tool-wear offsets, and E8xxxx parameters are not supported by NUMCOM. NUMBackup is the only package to support backup of these files. 1. RS-232 cable diagrams: (See US112 Communication Cables for Use with NUM CNC s and NUMDrive products) 2. Set up communication link on CNC. a. Press F11 (Utility). b. Type 0 and <enter> for Access to utility programs. c. Type 7 and <enter> for PLC Ladder Programming (UTILITY 7) d. Type F and <enter> for File management. e. If top line says I- port is private to PLCTOOL, Type I and <enter> so line says V -Port is now set public. f. Press F11 to exit. g. Press CTRL-S to exit this screen.

2 US N 111 2/9 h. Press F11 to get to CN Utility Menu. i. Type 1 and <enter> for Serial Line Parameters (CN UTILITY 1). j. See Section 8.3 in the Operator Manual ( or ) for details on setting up protocol. Figure 1 - Serial Line Parameters Data k. Should be set to: Line number (based on port cable is hooked up to, see appendix Figure 2, for line numbers) Standard RS232 Input speed (based on communication rate you want to use usually or 9600.) Output speed (based on communication rate you want to use usually or 9600.) # start bits 1 # data bits 8 # stop bits 1 Parity None Protocol None Flow control RTS/CTS Logical name (whatever you want to put there) l. The CNC is now set up for communications.

3 US N 111 3/9 3. Set up communications on PC a. Run NUMCOM. *NOTE* If operating system is Windows 95/98 you may need to shut down into DOS for this to communicate properly. b. Press <enter> for Configuration c. Ensure proper active serial port on PC is selected. If it is, press <enter>. d. Select proper receive baudrate based on previously set output speed on CNC. Press <enter>. e. Select proper send baudrate based on previously set input speed on CNC. Press <enter>. f. Ensure handshake signal says yes. Press <enter>. g. Press <enter> until you reach the main menu. h. PC is now set up for communications. 4. Backup Procedures Following steps (4a.) through (4d.), will create a full NUMCOM system backup. As you create your backup files, it is also recommended that a readme.txt file be created for future reference to indicate your file names, type of data contained in the file, as well as method used to create the backup file. Steps (4e.) through (4f.) although not required, creates individual backups for data created in the binary archive file of section (4a.). a. Targeted Memory Area: (Machine Parameters, Software options, Axis calibrations, Macros Zone 1,2, &3) Method: Machine Backup Utility. File created : 1- Binary file. 1).
