Chapter 12 Using microSD Cards
Send Image Files Through Email
The next step is to retrieve the image files from the microSD card and send them to your
customer through email.
1. Remove the microSD card from the controller and read the card using your computer.
2. Navigate to the location where the image files are stored (default is
<Micro800>\USERPRJ).
3. Use a compression program to zip these image files and send them to your customer
through email.
The customer must unzip these image files into the root directory of their microSD card and
verify that the location is identical to the original (default is <Micro800>\USERPRJ).
Restore Project from Backup
The last step is to restore the project to your controller from the microSD card. There are two
methods to restore the backup, depending on the configuration of the controller.
Existing Controller - Load Always / Load on Error
For this example, the Load on power up setting was configured to “Load Always”. This means
that the controller loads the project from the memory card whenever it is powered on.
1. Insert the microSD card into the microSD card slot.
2. Cycle power to the controller.
3. When the SD LED displays a steady green light, the project restore is complete.
This method is used for an existing controller that has been configured and you want to
update the program.
New Controller
If your controller is new, you can use the ConfigMeFirst.txt file to restore the project backup.
