Issue:
Need to know if the SD card is required

Product Line:
Motor Management system Tesys Island

Environment:
IEC Contactors and Starters

Resolution:
TeSys island bus couplers are designed with a card slot for a micro SD card. The island maintains files on the micro SD card for the fast device replacement (FDR) function, as well as a software/firmware backup from the device and log files.

The SD card is not mandatory and is only there for backup purposes

NOTE: If used, It is recommended to backup the SD card data regularly.
