If there is a boot application on the MicroSD memory card or USB device and
it is a newer version than the one stored in the MFD-Titan, the boot applica-
tion in the PLC will be updated.
The retentive data will then be loaded.
If the PLC is in the middle of a warm/cold start and the "STOP" DIP switch is
in the "OFF" position, the user program will be started.
The positions of the DIP switch are described in detail in → Section “3.4.1
DIP switch S1”, page 58.
