● If you cannot use a memory card with the SINUMERIK, it is probably because the
memory card is not formatted for the control system (e.g. Ext3 Linux file system), the
memory card file system is faulty or it is the wrong type of memory card.
● Insert the memory card carefully with the correct orientation into the memory card slot
(take note of arrows, etc.). This way you avoid mechanical damage to the memory card or
the device.
● Only use memory cards that have been approved by Siemens for use with SINUMERIK.
Even though the SINUMERIK keeps to the general industry standards for memory cards,
it is possible that memory cards from some manufacturers will not function perfectly in
this device or are not completely compatible with it (you can obtain information on
compatibility from the memory card manufacturer or supplier).
● For SINUMERIK 828D, only the memory card (1 GB) with order number 6FC5313-
5AG00-0AA1 is permitted.
