This application note will describe how to save and then restore parameters to a

parts fitted together: the SD-CARD-ADAPTOR and a SD memory card. Control Techniques
sells the CTSDG8GB SD card and the SD-CARD ADAPTOR. Below are pictures of an actual

Card following in this document it will be assumed the NV Media Card will consist of both the
SD-CARD-ADAPTOR and SD memory card in order to save and restore any drive parameters.
Before performing any of the parameter restoration operations below make sure the drive is
not enabled and there is no voltage applied to control terminal 31.
