Backup and restore can be configured to trigger through the following ways:
Backup and Restore Directory Structure
When a user project is backed up, a subdirectory named <Micro800>\USERPRJ is created on
the microSD card. The folder name takes the name of the project specified in the General Page
in the Connected Components Workbench software, which is the name of the controller by
default. However, if the ConfigMeFirst.txt file specifies a different subdirectory (example:
MyProject), the project is backed up to that directory. See General Configuration Rules in
ConfigMeFirst.txt on page 237.
Project restore is done from the subdirectory specified in ConfigMeFirst.txt file or the
<Micro800>/USERPRJ default folder, if none is specified in the ConfigMeFirst.txt file. The user
needs to ensure that the directory is populated with correct contents before restoring.
The ConfigMeFirst.txt file is a configuration file stored on the microSD card that the user can
optionally create to customize backup, restore, recipe, and data log directories. The following
sections include information on how to configure the ConfigMeFirst.txt properly.

IMPORTANT The Micro800 controller reports a major fault when project backup does
not succeed because the memory card size is exceeded.
