    Entering boot menu with no soft keys?

    Good morning.
    I am wondering if anyone can help?

    I want to try and backup the SRAM data on a fanuc Oi-TD. However it is a touch screen and has no soft keys to hold down during start up.
    Is there another way to enter the boot menu without the 2 x soft key press method?

    Many thanks.

    must be open cnc ,u have a white rotary switch on the cnc ,back in the electric panel, put on F and u will have the NCBOOT32 menu and u can save the sram there.
    Before this try to boot holding 6 and 7

    also on touch screen you can hold press on the upper-left corner of the touch panel screen while power on.
    one solution must work for you.
    good luck

    Thanks for the reply. I have not noticed the white rotary switch. I will have a look tomorrow.
    Do you rotate it to F while off and then power on the machine?

    Thanks
