Conversion of SM8G-B Cards

There are two types of cards that can operate in 32-bit or 64-bit mode: SM8G-B and SLIC cards. SM8G-B cards are equipped with 8G bytes of RAM. The operator must convert the cards to operate on 64-bit mode in order to enable access to memory ranges beyond the 4G byte, the memory range limit for 32-bit mode cards.

Because the GPL image contains either 32-bit or 64-bit mode code, the card must be flashed with the correct version before being able to run on the desired mode. Follow the steps in SM8G-B 32-bit to 64-bit Conversion or SM8G-B 64-bit to 32-bit Conversion in order to convert an SM8G-B card to operate from one mode to the other.
