Properties of the CF card
The CF card is mandatory for operation of the SIMOTION D4x5. The CF card is not supplied
with the SIMOTION D4x5 and must be ordered separately.
The SIMOTION Kernel (SIMOTION D4x5 firmware) and the software used to control the
drives (SINAMICS firmware) are contained on the CompactFlash Card.
The CF card is used for:
● Backing up the technology packages and user data (programs, configuration data,
parameter assignments)
● Updates (e.g., SIMOTION firmware update)
The licenses for the technology functions are linked to the serial number of the CF card. This
means the CF card can be inserted in a different SIMOTION D without having to change the
licenses.
The CF card is supplied in a bootable format with the latest SIMOTION Kernel and drive
software.
Note
The CF card may only be unplugged and plugged in when the system is deenergized! The
SIMOTION D4x5 is in a de-energized state when all the LEDs are OFF.
Additional information
