Program Memory
The control program is stored in the memory submodule ( 2.3.2) or in the internal RAM.
To safeguard against losing the program, dump it in an external EEPROM/EPROM memory sub-
module. In contrast to these memory submodules, the internal RAM or a RAM memory submodule
has the following characteristics:
•
The memory contents can be changed quickly.
•
User data can be stored and changed.
•
When the power fails and there is no battery, the memory contents are lost.
In safety mode, the control program must be stored in the EEPROM/EPROM submodule. If no
memory submodule or another memory submodule is connected, the S5-115F switches auto-
matically into test mode.
