The plug-in parameterization memory can be used as a main or additional memory.
Figure 3-18 shows how to proceed to use the SD card as the main or additional memory.
Setting in PC Worx:
Preferably, use the

Figure 3-18 Procedure for using the external SD card as main or additional memory
Information on using the SD card as main or additional memory can be found in the following
sections.
3.7.1

Main memory

The function is available for Inline controllers with firmware versions ≥ 4.40 as of
AUTOMATIONWORX Software Suite Version 1.82 AddOn V1.
If the SD card is used as the main memory, all application-specific data is stored on the SD
card.
The SD card is recognized during initialization of the Inline controller.
• Ensure that the SD card is inserted before switching on the controller, if it is to be
used by the controller as the main memory.
The SD card must not be removed while the Inline controller is in operation.
NOTE: Potential data loss
If you remove the SD card during operation, this could cause data loss.
• Do not remove the SD card during operation.
Should the SD card be accidentally removed during operation, the Inline controller will re-
port an error, stop processing the application program, and switch to the READY state. The
FAIL LED indicates an error. If an online connection to PC Worx is established, the message
window will indicate that the SD card was unintentionally inserted or removed.
To change operating modes (operating the Inline controller with/without SD card), please
note the following:
SD card inserted before PLC start-up
SD card inserted after PLC start-up
SD card inserted before/after PLC start-up
SD card is main memory
SD card is additional memory
