Commissioning
7.4 Writing, formatting and erasing the Micro Memory Card
SIMOTION C
148 Operating Instructions, 02/2012
The micro memory card can be formatted by calling this function in "SIMOTION SCOUT"
(see
SIMOTION SCOUT
online help).
Note
As of Kernel Version 2.1 in the C230-2 and micro memory card 6AU1 700-0AA02-0AA0, the
C230-2 transfers its stored kernel to the micro memory card after formatting only after the
C230-2 has been restarted. When the kernel is transferred, all LEDs on the C230-2 flash. If a
specific kernel version is required, it must be placed on the micro memory card manually.
If the C230-2 is switched off or de-energized during commissioning, this could damage the
file system on the micro memory card (data on the card can no longer be read). If this
occurs, the micro memory card must be reformatted.
The micro memory card must not be removed when energized.
Repairing the micro memory card
You can repair the micro memory card, for example, if it is faulty. The MMC card can be
inserted in a USB Flash card reader and formatted by means of Windows (FAT file system).
After it is formatted, the boot sector of the card must be rewritten to by means of SCOUT
("Options" > "Write to Boot Sector…").
With the micro memory card for the C240, the SIMOTION Kernel must be copied to the
micro memory card again, see chapter Kernel update for SIMOTION C240 / C240 PN
(Page 161).
