5. Plug the memory card into the CSM1. The card should be inserted with
the end with the small connector holes placed into the connector. It should
not be possible to insert the card the wrong way round. Push the card in
until you feel a positive click and the small button next to the card pops
out.
6. Plug the SC12 cable from the SC532(A) (or SC209 cable if using a PC201
card) into the 9-pin connector on the end of the CSM1. Observe the status
LED on the top of the case. After a short delay (up to 3.5s) this should
flash a number of times to indicate the status of the module and card. The
LED flashes for 0.5s, with a wait period of 0.5s between flashes. Refer to
table 1 for a full description of the status indication. For a
corrupt/unformatted card it should flash four times. If the LED does not
flash, check all power and cable connections.
