8.3 Inserting/replacing SIMATIC memory card
The SIMATIC memory card as memory module
The CPU uses a SIMATIC memory card as a memory module. You can use the SIMATIC
memory card as load memory or as a portable storage medium.
Note
An inserted SIMATIC memory card is required to operate the CPU.
The SIMATIC memory card is not
included in the scope of delivery of the CPU.
User program of the SIMATIC memory card
Make sure that the user program on the SIMATIC memory card to be inserted matches the
CPU (the system). The wrong user program may have fatal processing effects.
Inserting/replacing the SIMATIC memory card
1. First, switch the CPU to STOP mode.
To prevent damage to the ET 200pro, you must switch off the electronic/encoder
supply 1L+ and the load voltage supply 2L+ before removing connection modules.
2. Loosen the four screws of the connection module CM CPU 2PN M12, 7/8" and remove it
from the CPU.
3. If a SIMATIC memory card is already inserted, press the SIMATIC memory card with light
pressure into the card slot. The lock is released by the pressure. Remove the SIMATIC
memory card.
4. Insert the ("new") SIMATIC memory card into the card reader until the memory card
latches. Ensure that the angled corner of the medium card is on the left side.
