10.7.1
Automatic memory reset
Possible cause of an automatic memory reset
The CPU executes an automatic memory reset if an error occurs that prevents normal
further processing.
Causes for such errors can be:
●
User program is too large, and cannot be completely loaded into work memory.
●
The project data on the SIMATIC memory card is corrupt, for example, because a file was
deleted.
●
If you remove or insert the SIMATIC memory card and the backed-up retentive data
differs in structure from that of the configuration on the SIMATIC memory card.
