Insertion Of The Sd Memory Card - ABB AC500 Introduction Manual

Insertion of the SD memory card

AC500 CPUs are supplied without an SD Memory Card. It therefore must be ordered separately. The SD
Memory Card is used to back-up user data and store user programs or project source codes as well as
to update the internal CPU firmware. AC500 CPUs can be operated with and without SD Memory Cards.
The CPU uses a standard file system, which allows the MC502 SD Memory card to be read with a
standard memory card reader.
