Before a data transfer will be started, the drive type is checked by ADDM. If a
difference is found, the transmission will be aborted by ADDM with an error
message.
From the ADDM version 5.2 the drive type check is done as well, but now the user
may decide if the transfer should be aborted or not. So in a configured 611U type
it"s possible to backup the data of a real 611UE type.
Drive interfaces
The coupling to the drive for the data backup with ADDM may take place over
various interfaces depending upon the drive or drive variant used. The matching
transfer cable is then required for this purpose. The following interfaces are
available for data exchange.
• RS-232, serial
• PROFIBUS DP
SimoComU/A
The software packages SimoComU/A are available for starting up the drives.
These software packages are needed for processing the drive components with
ADDM on the backup computer. SimoComU/A are supplied on the installation CD.
The SimoComU/A software provides their own user interface for starting up and
maintaining the drives. ADDM uses the up and download functions of the
SimoComU/A software in the background. This means that the SimoComU/A
interface remains invisible while operating with ADDM. However, all the backed up
drive data can be processed and of course changed with SimoComU/A..
Caution
The SimoComU/A software may be installed in different versions on the same
computer. For using in correlation with ADDM, only the actual version of
SimoComU/A should be installed once. Older versions must be removed from the
computer before using ADDM.
