Hello Max1
what is the requirement behind the functionality of encryption? We typically start a discussion from the requirement, that leads us to a solution.
Please check out the programming manual of the SAFEX-C.1x in the media directory how to handle the configuration/application.
There is no encryption to the application code (at least how I understand the purpose) except that the function blocks are compiled into a binary code that is protected by a CRC against manipulation. The code cannot be reengineered easily and debugging through ctrlX SAFETY Engineering is only possible with the source code of configuration/application.
In current versions of the firmware and ctrlX SAFETY Engineering, the µSD-Card is not supported yet.
If you check the Installation Manual, you see that the planned purpose is
- Store a configuration/application from PC - to SAFEX-C.1x controller and its µSD-card.
- Serial commissioning (PC-less transfer/load of a configuration/application) to one or several SAFEX-C.1x controllers
- Firmware update (PC-less, including individual KeyFile, but faster than through ctrlX SAFETY Engineering)
