33.2 FNC291 – SAVER / Save to ER
Outline
This instruction writes the current values of extension registers (R) stored in the PLC's built-in RAM to extension file
registers (ER) stored in a memory cassette (flash memory) in units of sector (2048 points).
RWER (FNC294) instruction provided in FX
3UC PLCs Ver.1.30 or later and FX3U PLCs writes (transfers) only arbitrary
number of points. It is not necessary to execute INITR (FNC292) or INITER (FNC295) instruction every time when
RWER instruction is used.
→ For RWER instruction, refer to Section 33.5.

Explanation of function and operation
1. 16-bit operation (SAVER)
The contents (current values) of extension registers (R) specified by to +2047 are written (transferred) to
extension file registers (ER) inside a memory cassette (flash memory) having the same device numbers in “2048/n”
operation cycles (“2048/n+1” cycles if there is the remainder).
While the instruction is being executed, the number of already written points is stored in .
Operand Type Description Data Type
Device number of extension register to which data is to be written
(Only the head device number of a sector of extension registers can be specified.)
16-bit binary
n Number of points written (transferred) in one operation cycle [0 ≤ n ≤ 2048]
Device number storing the number of already written points
