Table 8-5 Internal Cpu Events On Memory Reset - Siemens Simatic S7-300 CPU 31xC Series Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

STOP LED does not flash during the memory reset
What should I do if the STOP LED does not flash during the memory reset or if other LEDs
are lit?
1. You must repeat steps 2 and 3.
2. If the CPU still does not reset memory, evaluate the diagnostic buffer of the CPU.

The CPU deletes the entire user program in the main memory.
The CPU deletes the retentive data.
The CPU tests its own hardware.
The CPU copies the sequence-relevant content of the MMC (load memory) to the main
memory.
Tip: If the CPU can not copy the MMC and requests a memory reset:
Remove the MMC
