Using microSD Cards
This chapter provides a description of microSD card support on Micro830,
Micro850, and Micro870 controllers.
The last section provides quickstart projects for the data log and recipe
functions.
Overview With firmware revision 12.011 or later, Micro830, Micro850, and Micro870
controllers support microSD cards through the use of the microSD card plug-
in (a PartnerNetworkâ„¢ Technology partner product) for Micro800 controllers
for the following purposes:
• Project backup and restore
• Data log and Recipe
We recommend using the Allen-Bradley 2080-SD-2GB microSD card.

IMPORTANT
For Micro850 (2080-L50E) and Micro870 (2080-L70E) controllers, do not
use any microSD card with less than 2 GB of memory.
IMPORTANT
For optimum performance, the microSD card should not be more than 90%
full. Regularly check available space on your microSD card and ensure that
the card is exclusively used for the Micro800 controller and no unnecessary
files are present. Regularly delete old data log files and directories.
