EEPROMs) via the Memory Card interface. Use the S5 adapter for S5 memory
submodules that is included in the scope of delivery for devices with Step 5
software. The S5 adapter consists of a Memory Card plug with an interface for the
connection of S5 memory modules. Refer to the STEP 5 manual for information on
operating the programming software.
