14.3 Data transfer with SIMATIC memory cards
Transferring objects from the project to the SIMATIC Memory Card
While the SIMATIC Memory Card is in the programming device or 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 account of dependencies
between blocks through block calls.
• CPU folder
In this case, all runtime-related 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 saved to the SIMATIC Memory Card. You
can find more information on service data in the section Reading/saving service data
(Page 343).
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.
Storing CPU trace recordings on the SIMATIC Memory Card
The "Save measurements on device (memory card)" function allows you to save CPU trace
recordings on the SIMATIC Memory Card.
1. Select "Traces" -> "Trace" in the project tree.
2. In the working area, select "Configuration" -> "Recording conditions" -> "Measurements in
device (memory card)".
