CF Card Installation and Removal
When using the PS-A Unit and a CF Card, follow the precautions below:
When using the CF Card Unit and the CF Card
Data Overwrite Limit
The CF Card has a data overwrite limit of approximately 100,000 times. Therefore, be sure to back up all CF
Card data regularly to another storage media. (100,000 times assumes the overwriting of 500KB of data in
DOS format)
A CF Card Insertion and Removal
Familiarize yourself with the differences between the top and bottom surfaces of the CF Card. Also, be sure to
read the CF Card's installation guide to ensure that the Card is properly oriented when it is inserted (i.e.
whether the top of the card is up or down etc.)
Be sure to use only CF Cards manufactured by the Digital Electronics Corporation. PS-A
unit performance cannot be guaranteed when using another manufacturer's CF Card.
Be sure to follow the instructions given below to prevent the CF Card's internal data from
being destroyed or a CF Card malfunction from occurring:
•
DO NOT bend the CF Card.
•
DO NOT drop or strike the CF Card against another object.
•
Keep the CF Card dry.
•
DO NOT touch the CF Card connectors.
•
DO NOT disassemble or modify the CF Card.
Prior to inserting the CF Card, be sure to confirm that the rear and the front of the CF Card
are correctly oriented, and that the CF Card connector position is correct. If the CF Card is
inserted incorrectly, the CF Card, its internal data, and the CF card unit may be damaged.
Since the PS-A unit's OS views the CF Card as a hard disk, do not remove or insert the CF
Card when the unit's power is switched ON. Doing so may damage data and stop OS oper-
ation. Be sure to shut down the OS and switch power OFF prior to removing or inserting a
CF Card.
Never turn OFF or reset the PS-A while accessing the CF Card to prevent damaging file
data. Also, be sure to shut down the PS-A unit's OS before turning OFF the main power.
