Memory Card Installation
The SmartMedia
®
memory card stores the system configuration, speech messages, and alarm tones.
When the memory card is being installed, complete the following instructions:
Insert the memory card into the card reader on the 69500-xxx AMI Main Board. Ensure the label on the
memory card faces up and slide the memory card in until it is fully seated in the slot. When seated
properly, the card protrudes approximately ¼ inch.
N
OTE
:
The memory card and its socket are keyed for proper insertion –
do not force the card into the
socket
.
Follow the instructions on page 23 to reboot the system so the memory card will be read by the AMI unit.
Saving Configurations to a SmartMedia
®
Card
Custom configurations are created using the ACT software. After a custom configuration is created, it
must be compiled to the local hard drive (typically in the “C:\Program Files\AMI Configuration
Tool\AMI Configs” folder). After the configuration is compiled to the hard drive, it must be moved or
copied to the SmartMedia
®
card using Windows Explorer.
N
OTE
:
Custom configurations cannot be compiled directly to a SmartMedia
®
card.

Card Formatting
All new SmartMedia
®
memory cards must be formatted specifically for use with the AMI. Formatting is
accomplished using the following DOS format command from the Windows command prompt:
Format <drive>: /a:16K
where <drive> is the drive letter of the PC’s SmartMedia
®
reader/writer.

:
Successful formatting of the SmartMedia
®
card can be performed only on Windows 2000 and
Windows XP workstations.
