CompactFlash cards for users
● The SINUMERIK CNC supports the file systems FAT16 and FAT32 for CompactFlash cards. You may need to format the memory card if you want to use a memory card from another device or if you want to ensure the compatibility of the memory card with the SINUMERIK. However, formatting the memory card will permanently delete all data on it.
● Do not remove the memory card while it is being accessed. This can lead to damage of the memory card and the SINUMERIK as well as the data on the memory card.
● If you cannot use a memory card with the SINUMERIK, it is probably because the memory card is not formatted for the control system (e.g. Ext3 Linux file system), the memory card file system is faulty or it is the wrong type of memory card.
● Insert the memory card carefully with the correct orientation into the memory card slot (take note of arrows, etc.). This way you avoid mechanical damage to the memory card or the device.
● Only use memory cards that have been approved by Siemens for use with SINUMERIK. Even though the SINUMERIK keeps to the general industry standards for memory cards, it is possible that memory cards from some manufacturers will not function perfectly in this device or are not completely compatible with it (you can obtain information on compatibility from the memory card manufacturer or supplier).
● The CompactFlash card from SanDisk "CompactFlash® 5000 Industrial Grade" has been approved for SINUMERIK (Order Number 6FC5313-5AG00-0AA0).

1.2 1.2 Toolbox CD and other available tools
Toolbox CD
The Toolbox CD for SINUMERIK 828D has the following content:
● PLC Programming Tool for Integrated PLC
● Commissioning software for SINAMICS S120
● PLC Library (example)
PLC Programming Tool for Integrated PLC
The following tool is available for programming the PLC: PLC Programming Tool for Integrated PLC. For the rest of this manual, this will be referred to using the abbreviation "Programming Tool".
Commissioning software for SINAMICS S120
Until the SINAMICS S120 commissioning functionality is completely available via the user interface, drive configuration and optimization is performed using the commissioning software for SINAMICS S120. The PC is connected using the Ethernet interface on the front of the SINUMERIK 828D.
Note Ordering data
You can find the ordering data for the following tools in Catalog NC 61.
RCS Commander
The RCS Commander (Remote Control System) is a tool the commissioner can use to exchange files between the PC and the control very easily, using drag and drop.
For data transmission, the PC is connected directly to the Ethernet interface on the front of the control. For a point-to-point connection, time-consuming parameterization of the Ethernet interface is not necessary. All settings are made automatically by the RCS Commander. The RCS Commander can also access several NCUs sequentially via a company network.
STARTER drive/commissioning software
Drive commissioning for the SINUMERIK 828D can be performed using the STARTER drive commissioning software. Simple commissioning procedures which are usually performed by field service staff (such as activating direct measuring systems) can be executed directly via the SINUMERIK 828D user interface. Advanced commissioning procedures which are usually performed when the machine is being manufactured (such as drive optimization) can be executed offline via the commissioning software used for SINAMICS S120.

Case 2:
As case 1 and additionally:
Deletion of the data in the /oem and /addon directories.
Delete OEM data All the data under /oem and /addon is deleted: OEM archives;
OEM alarm texts; Easy Screen application.
PLC stop PLC is stopped.
NOTICE
Replacement of the system CompactFlash card between different PPUs Because of the system-related dependency between the CompactFlash card and SRAM for
the data storage in the SINUMERIK 828D, the system CompactFlash card should be considered as a permanently installed EEPROM and should not be replaced!
If this has to be performed for imperative reasons, the replacement of the system CompactFlash card is detected during startup because of the stored serial number.
The reaction of the control is the loading of saved during startup (backup was performed previously with "Save data" softkey). If no stored data is found, a startup is performed automatically with the "NCK default data".
