Data transfer with SIMATIC memory cards

Transferring objects from the project to the SIMATIC memory card
When the SIMATIC memory card is inserted in the programming device or in the external
card reader, you can transfer the following objects from the project tree (STEP 7) to the
SIMATIC memory card:
● Individual blocks (multiple selection possible)
In this case, the transfer is consistent, i.e. the function takes dependencies between
blocks due to block calls into account.
● CPU folder
In this case, all the runtime-relevant objects, such as blocks and the hardware
configuration, are transferred to the SIMATIC memory card, just as with downloading.
● Service data
In this case, the service data saved beforehand is transferred to the SIMATIC memory
card. You will find additional information on the service data in the following manuals:
– System manual S7-1500, ET 200MP Automation System
– System manual Redundant System S7-1500R/H
– System manual ET 200SP Distributed I/O System
– Operating instructions ET 200pro CPU 1516pro-2 PN
You have the following options for performing the transfer:
● Transfer the objects using drag-and-drop.
● Use the "Card Reader/USB memory > Write to memory card" command in the "Project"
menu.
