Memory Cartridge

A user program can be stored on an optional memory cartridge installed on a
running and the memory cartridge can be installed on another
WindLDR,
a memory cartridge, the CPU module can exchange user programs without using a computer.
This feature is available on all models of CPU modules.

Note: The optional clock cartridge (FC4A-PT1) and the memory cartridge cannot be used together on the all-in-one type CPU
module. The clock cartridge and the memory cartridge can be used together on the slim type CPU module.
User Program Compatibility
The CPU module can execute only user programs created for the same CPU module type. When installing a memory car-
tridge, make sure that the user program stored on the memory cartridge matches the CPU module type. If the user program
is not for the same CPU module type, a user program syntax error occurs and the CPU module cannot run the user pro-
gram.
• Compatibility of User Program with CPU Modules
Caution
When a memory cartridge contains a user program for higher functionality, do not install the mem-
ory cartridge into CPU modules with lower functionality, otherwise the user program is not exe-
cuted correctly. Make sure that the user program in the memory cartridge is compatible with the
CPU module.

FC4A-PM32
The 64KB memory cartridge can be used on slim type CPU modules
FC4A-D20RK1, FC4A-D20RS1, FC4A-D40K3, and FC4A-D40S3 with sys-
tem program ver. 201 or higher only. The program capacity expands up
FC4A-PM64
to 64,500 bytes (10,750 steps).
To edit user programs over 32 KB (5200 steps), use WindLDR ver. 4.2
or higher.
The user program stored on the memory cartridge is executed.
When the memory cartridge does not store a user program, the user program
on the CPU module EEPROM is executed.
When a memory cartridge is installed on the CPU module, the user program
can be downloaded from the memory cartridge to the CPU module by designat-
ing in WindLDR Function Area Settings. To perform user program download
from the memory cartridge, use CPU system program ver. 210 or higher and
WindLDR ver 5.31 or higher.
The user program stored on the EEPROM in the CPU module is executed.
