Inserting (and Removing) a PCMCIA
Card into the DCS 465 Camera Back
This section describes how to insert (and remove) a PCMCIA card into the
camera back. PCMCIA cards are not supplied with the camera back, but
are available as optional equipment. Refer to chapter 1, to the R
EAD
M
E
file
on the supplied software driver diskettes, and to the appendix “Optional
Equipment & Spare Parts List” for additional information on supported
cards.
A PCMCIA card can be inserted or removed at any time, except when the
red “Card Busy” light on the camera back is blinking. You can insert/
remove a card while in the field, while connected to the AC battery
charger adapter, while connected to a computer and/or while the camera
back is on or off.
IMPORTANT: When the red Card Busy light is blinking, data is being read from
or written to the PCMCIA card, for example just after you take a picture, or later
when you move data from the camera back to a computer. If the card is removed
while the light is blinking, you may lose the current image, and may lose other
images as well.
Inserting a PCMCIA Card
Follow these steps to insert a PCMCIA card. (If a card is currently in-
stalled, there is no need to follow these steps now, although if you are
unfamiliar with the use of this type of card you may wish first to remove
the card as described in the next section, and then to return here to
reinstall the card.)
