Try regular upload-download process. 4. S7-1200 does not need a SD card for program upload or download. 5. Go for a new project, try again and see what happens. RATE IT. IF IT HELPS YOU.
	Rate it if it is helphul.

They use MMC type memory cards. To most people, they look the same from one side, but flip it over to the contact side, and I think you will see a difference between an MMC and SD card. Also, there is no such part #. However, if you transposed a couple numbers, you may have meant the ET200SP, also known as CPU 1512SP F-1 PN, 6ES7 612-1SK01-0AB0. The largest memory card available is 32GB, and the next smaller size is 2GB. If you are using a 4GB SIMATIC compatible memory card, it must be a non-Siemens MMC because Siemens does not make a 4GB SIMATIC memory card. MicTsc There is no 4GB Memory Card for S7 1200 PLC. Which Order Nr. does your Memory Card have? If it is a 4MB Memory Card, then it could be nearly full with a 3,5MB Project.
