Cerbo GX - Eject button for the MicroSD

Hi everybody !

After upgrading from 2.58 to 2.60 the Cerbo GX firmware, I have been searching through the different menus for the "eject" MicroSD card, and not found it.

Thanks for your comments and help.

Hi TTbb, thanks for the answer. Curiously, when I removed the MicroSD (without powering off the Cerbo GX), I got a message mentionning I should use the eject button. Here is the pciture.

Well MichelG, you know what we can conclude form this! We can conclude I was wrong and there is indeed a mac style safe eject.

To find it: Settings> scroll down to 'VRM online portal' > scroll down to 'microSD / USB'


On seeing it i am pretty sure i have previously used it. oops!

Powering down is however still a valid safe way to remove it as there is no read write to the card.

You can search what you want with a sd-card with a swu file on it, but you won't find it, see https://github.com/victronenergy/venus/issues/75 (and there is if you use it for data logging).
