SCADA question

[Dave Squibb]

Hi, Can SCADA be used to make a PC interface to read / write to an SD card via USB to a card reader?
I would like to have data stored on an SD card for use with an 8 bit PIC but have the ability to update the card externally on a PC using a custom PC program (SCADA).
Thanks,
Dave.

Hi Dave,

Yes this sounds to me like it should work fine.

The simple way is to use the SCADA Event Log component and specify the Log file property as the path to your SD Card.

e.g. change $(srcdir)log.txt to for example E:\log.txt if E:\ is the path to the SD card.
