Memory media
Memory expansion with the CompactFlash Card
You can use the CompactFlash card as a storage location for backing up data.
To obtain additional memory expansion, you must purchase the "256 MB user memory"
option with order number: 6FC5800-0AP12-0YB0.
This option is then released via the license manager (addit. 256 MB HMI user memory on CF
card of NC,...).
USB FlashDrive
You can use a 512 MByte USB FlashDrive as an additional memory medium:
Order Number: 6ES57648-0DC20-0AA0
However, do not use the USB FlashDrive to directly execute programs as there is no way of
ensuring that it cannot fall out or be accidentally removed.
Keyboard
With HMI-Embedded you have to distinguish between upper and lower case. As it is not
possible to switch to lower case mode on the keyboard of the machine control panel or
operator panel front, you will need an external keyboard (USB connector) for commissioning.
Plug in the cable connection of the keyboard in the USB interface on the front of the operator
panel. The system immediately detects the keyboard.
