If the major and minor revisions of the project on the memory card do not
match the major and minor revision of the controller, a major fault may occur
during a load.
The memory card stores the firmware for projects for revision 12.0 or later.
Depending on the current revision of the controller, you may be able to use
the memory card to update the firmware of the controller and load the project.
Sample ladder logic code for the Logix Designer applications are available for
using your file system on a Logix 5000 controller to read and write data on a
memory card. These are the files you need:
• CF_Read_Write.ACD
• CF_Read_Write_Example.ACD
• Logix-AP007B-EN-P.pdf
To access these files, see

The Logix Designer application 1784-CF128 CompactFlash card does not have
to be formatted to store controller information.

project is

The CompactFlash card uses a special format.
• Use only a Logix5000 controller to store a project on a CompactFlash card.
• Store only a single project and no other data on a CompactFlash card.
• When you store a project on a CompactFlash card, you overwrite the entire contents of the card. In other words, you lose everything
that is currently on the card.
³
The CompactFlash card uses the FAT16 file system.
