Changing the MicroSD card
 | Loss of data MicroSD cards are subjected to heavy load during operation and have to withstand many write cycles and extreme ambient conditions. MicroSD cards from other manufacturer may fail, resulting in data loss. Only use industrial MicroSD cards provided by Beckhoff. |
The MicroSD card slot is intended for an industrially compatible MicroSD card. The firmware of the Embedded PC is stored on the MicroSD card. If necessary, the MicroSD card can be written to from TwinCAT 3, allowing user-defined data to be stored.
The eject mechanism is based on the push/push principle. Below, we show you how to change the MicroSD card.
Requirements:
- The Embedded PC must be switched off. The MicroSD card may only be installed or removed in switched-off state.
