Enable/Disable Secure Digital Card
To enable or disable the SD card, use one of the following methods.
• Using a CIP Generic Message
– To enable, set Attribute 4 (‘SOCKET DISABLED’) to ‘0’ (‘False’) of
Removable Media Socket Object instance (0x3A4, 932 decimal)
– To disable, set Attribute 4 (‘SOCKET DISABLED’) to ‘1’ (‘True’)
of Removable Media Socket Object instance (0x3A4, 932 decimal).
• Enable/Disable using the Add-on Profile.
The adapter supports the use of a 1784-SD1 (1 GB) and 1784-SD2 (2 GB)
card. You can use third-party SD cards with the controller. You can use SD
cards with as much as 32 GB of memory.
If you use an SD card other than those cards that are available from
Rockwell Automation, unexpected results can occur. For example, you can
experience data corruption or data loss.
SD cards that are not provided by Rockwell Automation can have different
industrial, environmental, and certification ratings as those cards that are
available from Rockwell Automation. These cards can have difficulty with
survival in the same industrial environments as the industrially rated versions
available from Rockwell Automation.
IMPORTANT Rockwell Automation does not test the use of third-party SD cards with the
device.
