Restoring Saved (Backed-up) Settings

Restoration procedure
A restoration can be performed using the [Restore Controller] in Epson RC+.

Be sure to perform the restoration on the same Robot Controller for which the data backup was performed. Also, do not rewrite the contents of the backup data. Operation of the robot system cannot be guaranteed if a restoration is performed using the data of a different Robot Controller or with rewritten data.

KEY POINTS


  • Restore backup data saved in the backup of Robot Controller settings on the same system.

    If you try to restore information from a different system, the following warning dialog box appears.

Except in special cases such as replacing a Robot Controller, click the [No] button.

  • Restoring backup data from a system with safety function options enabled to a system with safety function options disabled does not set the option functions.
  • If you check [Safety board configuration] or [Robot names, serial numbers, calibrations] in step 4, the safety board password authentication screen will be displayed.
