BOOT SYSTEM
D.1
OVERVIEW
APPENDIX
B62755EN/01
The boot system load the CNC system software (flash RAMDRAM),
then starts it so that software can be executed.
The boot system provides the following maintenance functions for the
CNC:
(1) Registering a file in flash ROM
Reads a file from a memory card, in MSDOS format conforming
to JEIDA V4.1, into flash ROM.
(2) Checking a file (series and edition) in flash ROM
(3) Deleting a file from flash ROM
(4) Batch saving and restoration of files of parameters and programs
backed up by battery (SRAM area), to and from a memory card
(5) Saving a file in flash ROM to a memory card
(6) Formatting of a memory card
(7) Deleting a file from a memory card
This manual describes the activation of the boot system, as well as the
screen displays and operation for the functions listed above.
CAUTION
A kind of memory card
1 We recommend to use SRAM type memory card. When you
use flash type memory card, it is impossible to use functions
(4) to (7).
2 For the 60M1/05 and later versions of BOOT SYSTEM
software, data can be saved to a flash memory card
recommended by FANUC. Note, however, that the actually
available memory is equal to the capacity of the flash
memory card, minus 128 KB. The types of memory cards
which can be used are detailed in the ordering list.
Refer to the Order List for details of the usable memory card
types.
D.1.1
Starting the Boot
System
Hold down the two keys until the boot system screen appears.
2 When the flash memory does not contain a file required to start the
CNC
Immediately after the CNC is turned on, the boot system starts
transferring files from flash ROM to DRAM. If, for some reason, a
file required to start the CNC (NC basic) is not in flash ROM or has
been destroyed, the boot system is automatically started.

System Files and User
Files
D. BOOT SYSTEM
APPENDIX
B62755EN/01
The boot system organizes files in flash ROM into two main groups :
system files and user files. These two file types have the following
characteristics :
D System files
D User files
D.1.3
When OPT2 board or LCB (loader control board) is mounted on the CNC,
we have to access to flash ROM or SRAM that mounted on additional
board. So, the boot system displays BOOT SLOT CONFIGURATION
screen that to select a access board.
