8-3-2 Specifications of Supported SD Memory Cards, Folders, and Files
The NX-series Controllers support both SD cards and SDHC cards. However, operation was confirmed
only for the OMRON SD Memory Card given in the following table. Correct operation may not be possi-
ble if you use any other SD or SDHC card.
The system-defined variable _Card1Err (SD Memory Card Error Flag) changes to TRUE (observation
level) in the following cases.
• When there is a format error
If an error occurs, the SD PWR indicator on the front of the CPU Unit goes out, and accessing the SD
Memory Card will not be possible.

*1 You cannot begin volume label names with a space.
*2 Even if the computer supports multibyte characters (e.g., for Japanese), you cannot use them in the CPU Unit.
