You need only a MMC card to log protocols (date and time, weight value, …). The order number of the MMC card is: 7MH4900-2AY21 Best regards Siwarexi

These modules been running since 2014 without memory cards. But, please tell me, can I use these memory cards to restore the configuration or parameters when I replace the SIWAREX modules?

You can’t use a MMC card to restore the parameter settings. To restore the parameter settings you have to use: - the Siwatool software (commands “Receive all data” and “Send all data”) OR: - the Step7-program (commands “649” (=Receive all data from the FTA to the Scale-DB) and “699” (=Send all data from the Scale-DB to the FTA) Best regards Siwarexi

I tried to order the configuration package 7MH4900-2AK01 and i got a reply that it has reached to end of product life cycle and you cant order this one. They suggested to order the successor 7MH4900-2AK02. will this successor work with SIWAREX FTA 7MH4900-2AA01?

In this case an inspector of the local authority seals the FTA and you have to log all weighings on a MMC card. The configuration package 7MH4900-2AK01 is out-of-date. The successor is 7MH4900-2AK02 and this configuration package works with SIWAREX FTA 7MH4900-2AA01. Best regards Siwarexi
