(5) Directory tree in a memory card
The directory tree in a memory card is shown as follows.
(a) The copied screen data is stored under the UserData folder.
Since the OS and screen data are managed by the Dlist.ini file and the Flist.ini files in the corresponding folders, always install or download the GT Designer2 OS (specify the memory card as the download destination) to create the memory card.
If Explorer or like in the personal computer is used to copy the OS, the GOT cannot recognize the data in the memory card.
(b) Do not edit the screen data in the memory card directly using GT Designer2.
When edit the screen data, use the following method.
• Connect the GOT to a PC with the RS-232C cable and edit the uploaded screen data.
• Copy the data in the memory card to a PC and edit the data.
(c) When copy a file (alarm history data, recipe data) in the memory card to a PC or delete it, install the memory card to the PC and copy/delete the file by the Explorer.
(d) The SRAM type memory card can be formatted on the GOT.
Check the memory card with the self-diagnostics of the utility function.
When the memory card is checked, the memory card is formatted after the check.
The compact flash PC card cannot be formatted on the GOT.
Use the personal computer to format it.
For the way to format the memory card, refer to the GT Designer2 Version2 Operating Manual.
(e) The dat format file is used in the GOT system.
There fore, the user must not create the file with the extension of "dat".
You cannot use this function to install the OS (from memory card to internal memory).
For details of OS installation, refer to the GT Designer2 Version2 Operating Manual.

• If the touch panel is not touched within the specified time, the screen saver function switches off the display to prevent "burn-in" of the display device.
Especially for the display screen type of EL, it is recommended to use this function.
• Dedicated to the A985GOT, the Human sensor function automatically deactivates the screen saver, without any touch on the touch panel, by means of a signal detected by the Human sensor.
• Using the system information function of the GOT, the signal detected by the Human sensor may also be controlled by the PLC CPU. For full information on the system information function, refer to the GT Designer2 Version2 Reference Manual.
Signal detection timings are shown below.
