[Enter Filename]
Select DELETE to choose a file to delete from an SRAM card. Now turn
the parameter control to select a file from the file list or type in a name
using the numeric keys. Press START to complete the DELETE. The user
will be prompted "ARE YOU SURE?".
Select FORMAT to prepare a card for saving data. NOTE: that in the
same way that formatting a floppy disc deletes ALL data on the disc,
formatting a FLASH or SRAM card will delete all existing data on the
card. It is not possible to save data to an unformatted card. Formatting
a card clears all data and prepares the card for files to be written. See
the box following this section for more information on formatting.
Select START to begin the format. You will be asked to confirm that
you wish to format the card. Fig 16.2.
Formatting a FLASH card will also write an ALLDATA file to the card.
If a FLASH card is detected when a FORMAT is STARTed, the card is
formatted as usual and then a single ALLDATA file is written to the
card using the current remote data. No further SAVE operations can be
performed on a FLASH card although the saved ALLDATA file can be
LOADed at any time. As FLASH cards have a virtually limitless data
retention life compared to an SRAM card (which has a data retention
life of 1 to 5 years depending on card size) this is a good method of
handling long term backups. See the box at the end of this section for
information on the possibility of copying files to a PC.
START will begin a SAVE, LOAD, DELETE or FORMAT operation.
DONE will leave the CARD menu and return to UTILS.
The user will be warned if the internal SRAM card battery voltage
becomes low. The battery should be replaced as soon as possible to
prtect the stored data. The card has a small secondary battery to
protect the contents while the main battery is changed.
