and/or Motor Controllers which the Br-EFB is controlling will usually draw
far more current than the Br-EFB itself.
19) µSd/µSdHC/µSdXc Flash Memory Card Slot
(One µSd/µSdHC/µSdXC compatible socket)
This socket is compatible with both standard Micro Sd flash cards,
Micro SdHC and Micro SdXC flash cards. It will support µSd flash cards of
64 GBytes and larger.
The Br-EFB stores configuration and log data on the µSd card. You
must always run the Br-EFB with a µSd flash card in this socket. The
Br-EFB stores all its configuration data on the µSd flash card, as well as
show data in AutoDownload files, and logs that are regularly updated by
the Br-EFB.
The Br-EFB writes a new log entry for each major event that happens to
it. This includes starting shows, enabling/disabling the valve outputs,
following errors, and more. So that the Log files don’t grow and take over
the µSd flash card, the Br-EFB caps the size of each of them. After a log
file reaches this cap, it begins a new Log file. After a ten Log files have
been created, the Br-EFB deletes the oldest Log file when it creates a new
one.
20) Mini USB
(One Mini USB compatible socket)
This is used to connect the Br-EFB to your computer for configuration
and programming. if you have the appropriate drivers installed on your PC,
the Br-EFB will appear as a standard COM port to your computer. Once
this connection has been established, you can use this port just as you
would the RS-422 ports, using GilderTerm, Pc•MACs, or other software
running on your PC.
Before you can use the USB port, you will need to load a driver on your
PC. This driver, from STMicroelectronics, allows your computer to use the
serial port on the Br-EFB, just like any other USB to serial adapter.
