Store and Load a Project Using a Memory Card
If you want to load an image
Whenever there is no project in the
controller and you turn on or cycle the
chassis power
Only through the Logix Designer
application
Example
Load Image = On Power Up
Load Mode = Program
Load Image = On Corrupt Memory
Load = Run
Load Image = On Power Up
Load Mode = Program
Revision ≥ 12.0
Load Image = On Power Up
Load Image = Not applicable
Then choose
On Corrupt Memory
User Initiated
The following table provides load option examples.
Table 2 - Load Option Examples
Description
1. You update the firmware of the controller to the desired revision.
2. You store the project for the controller on the memory card.
3. When you turn on power to the controller after installation, the project
loads into the controller.
4. The controller remains in Program mode.
1. You store the project for the controller on the memory card (the major
and minor revisions of the firmware in the controller match the major
and minor revisions of the project on the memory card.)
2. If the battery discharges or the ESM is disengaged and power to the
controller is interrupted, the project is cleared from the controller
memory.
3. When power is restored, the project automatically loads into the
controller and the controller returns to Run mode.
1. The controller fails.
2. You remove the memory card.
3. You replace the failed controller with a new controller.
4. You replace the memory card.
5. When you turn on the power, the firmware and project load into the
controller. The controller remains in Program mode.
1. You want to load a different project into your controller.
2. A memory card contains the desired project.
3. With the memory card installed in the controller, you use the Logix
Designer application to load the project into the controller.

Notes
• For example, if the battery becomes discharged
or the ESM is disengaged and the controller loses
power, the project is cleared from memory. When
power is restored, this load option loads the
project back into the controller.
• Loading from a memory card may also change
the firmware of the controller. For more
information, see "Perform Firmware Updates
page 15."
• You can use the Logix Designer application to
load the project.
