Block availability varies by board type. microSD card slots are included on the Activity Board WX and Badge WX boards. A pad for a microSD card holder is included on the Project Board USB.
For Propeller Activity Board WX, Propeller FLiP, Scribbler, and or Other board types. Not available for Badge or board types.
The EEPROM read block reads data from the EEPROM memory on the Propeller Activity Board and saves it in a variable.
Choose memory addresses carefully. Numbers take up 4 bytes of memory, a byte takes 1 byte of memory, and a string takes up 1 byte for each letter in the string plus 1 byte to indicate the end of the string (“Hello” would take 6 bytes of memory). The range used for address access by this block (0 to 7675) maps to the actual address range 32768 to 40443 in the Propeller Activity Board's upper EEPROM.
For Propeller Activity Board WX, Propeller FLiP, Scribbler, and or Other board types. Not available for Badge or board types.
The EEPROM write block writes data to the EEPROM memory on the Propeller Activity Board.
Choose memory addresses carefully.

Compatible only with Badge board types.
The Memory store contact block stores up to 128 characters of text to EEPROM memory.
Compatible only with Badge board types.
The Memory check contact block checks to see if a string of text has already been stored in EEPROM memory.
Compatible only with Badge board types.
The Memory get contact block retrieves text with a certain index number from EEPROM memory.
Compatible only with Badge board types.
The Memory count contacts block returns how many contacts are currently stored in EEPROM memory.
Compatible only with Badge board types.
The Memory erase contacts block erases entire user portion of EEPROM memory by placing 255 in each location.
Available for the Activity Board WX, FLiP or Project Board USB, Badge WX, and Other board types
The SD file open block opens the specified file on the SD card. Filenames can be up to 8 characters long, and a 3 character extension such as .TXT is required.
Available for the Activity Board WX, FLiP or Project Board USB, Badge WX, and Other board types
The SD file read/write block is used to read from, write to, or close the current file on the SD card.
Available for the Activity Board WX, FLiP or Project Board USB, Badge WX, and Other board types
The SD file set block sets or retrieves the current file pointer (location in characters where reads or writes begin from).
