Removing/inserting a SIMATIC memory card on the CPU

Requirement
The CPU only supports pre-formatted SIMATIC memory cards. If necessary, delete all
previously stored data before using the SIMATIC memory card. You can find more
information on deleting the content of the SIMATIC memory card in the function manual
Structure and use of the CPU memory.
In order to work with the SIMATIC memory card, first ensure that the SIMATIC memory card
is not write-protected. If it is, move the slider out of the lock position.
Inserting the SIMATIC memory card
To insert a SIMATIC memory card, follow these steps:
1. Ensure that the CPU is either switched off or in STOP mode.
2. Insert the SIMATIC memory card, as depicted on the CPU, into the slot for the SIMATIC
memory card.

memory card latches.
Removal of the SIMATIC memory card
To remove a SIMATIC memory card, follow these steps:
1. Switch the CPU to STOP mode.
2. Press the SIMATIC memory card into the CPU with light pressure. After audible
unlatching of the SIMATIC memory card, remove it.
Only remove the SIMATIC memory card in POWER OFF or STOP mode of the CPU. Ensure

a block, test functions) are active in STOP mode or were active before POWER OFF.
