Is this controller program area memory backed up by batteries? or is it a long lasting EPROM/ROM memory type so programs won't ever get lost? Thanks in advance.
The CF or SD, depending on generation, contains the operating system. When a battery dies and the cap discharges you loose everything you did, jobs, tool data, naming, calibration, application, hardware, etc. The os is all that remains. That is why you have to reload the cmos.bin or re-initialize.
