Core Functions

1. Program Backup & Restore: One‑click saving and loading of user programs and system configurations.

2. Data Logging: Store process data, event logs, and production records for traceability and analysis.

3. Recipe Management: Save multiple production recipes for quick line changeovers.

4. Firmware Update: Update controller OS and firmware without dedicated programming tools.

5. Data Retention: Securely preserve critical data for up to 10 years without power.

6. Easy Maintenance: Enable fast, consistent program deployment across multiple controllers.

Application Scenarios

• Process Industries: Chemical, water/wastewater, food/beverage, and pharmaceutical plants needing reliable data logging and recipe storage.

• Manufacturing Lines: Packaging, assembly, and material handling systems with frequent recipe changes and program backups.

• Legacy AC31 Systems: Maintenance and upgrade of existing Procontic CS31/AC31 installations.

• Remote & Unattended Sites: Oil/gas, energy, and infrastructure applications where on‑site programming is limited.

• High‑Availability Systems: Critical processes requiring quick controller replacement with pre‑loaded programs.

Usage and Maintenance Instructions

• Installation: Insert card into CPU’s SmartMedia slot with gold contacts facing down; push until fully seated.

• Write Protection: Use the card’s write‑protect switch to prevent accidental overwriting.

• Backup: In Control Builder AC31 software, select “Backup to Card” to save programs and data.

• Restore: Insert card into new or reset CPU, power on, and select “Restore from Card” in software.

• Routine Checks: Inspect card annually for physical damage; verify data integrity before critical process changes.

• Replacement: Replace every 8–10 years or if read/write errors occur; use only ABB‑approved SmartMedia cards.

• Environment: Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, moisture, and corrosive gases; operate within rated temperature range.

• Handling: Do not touch gold contacts; keep card clean and dry when not in use.
