SD Card Appli Move

Overview

Since there are only two SD card slots (one of them is a service slot), three or more SD card applications
cannot be used simultaneously.
However, if multiple SD card applications are merged, three or more SD card options can be used.
This function is referred to as the "SD card merge function."
The "SD card merge function" is a function which enables the use of three or more functions within the
capacity of two SD cards by physically transferring the function of one SD card to other SD cards (all SD
card options can be stored in two SD cards).
However, SD card applications are under license, therefore, since an SD card license after merge is
transferred to the target SD card, it cannot be used even if it is moved to the target machine.
Also, a process to prevent illegal copying is performed.
The service program "SD Card Appli Move" (SP5-873) lets you move application programs from one
SD card to another SD card.

Notes on Using the SD Merge Function

• The data necessary for authentication is transferred with the application program from an SD card
to another SD card. Authentication fails if you try to use the SD card after you move the application
program from one card to another card.
• Do not use the SD card if it has been used before for other purposes. Normal operation is not
guaranteed when such an SD card is used.
• An SD card, which becomes empty after moving the data in it to another card, cannot be reused.
• After moving the data in an SD card to another card so that the source card becomes empty, keep
the empty card in place by, for example, affixing it near the SD card slot with adhesive tape. This is
done for the following reasons:
• The SD card can be the only proof that the user is licensed to use the application program.
• You may need to check the SD card and its data to solve a problem in the future.
