satisfy the SD memory card specifications. Please use the dedicated
formatting software.
It is recommended to save important data in another media for backup.
Never remove the card or power off the PLC body while the SD LED on the
CPU unit is flashing (data is being read from or written into the card). Data
may be damaged.

than the usable capacity. Data in the card may be damaged.
