the device and void your STONEX warranty. To prevent dust or moisture entering the storage
card slot:
-
Make certain that the storage card slot door is attached correctly when you are using
the handheld outdoors.
-
When inserting or removing a storage card, place the handheld on a dust-free indoor
surface.
Warning:
Static electricity can harm electronic components inside the handheld. To prevent
static damage:
-
Discharge static electricity from your body before you touch any of the electronic
components inside your device, such as a memory module. You can do so by touching
an unpainted metal surface.
To insert an SD or SDHC card:
1. Place the handheld on a dust-free indoor surface.
2. Flip open the storage card slot door on the side of the handheld.
3. Insert the storage card into the storage card slot with the gold contacts facing down.
Gently press the card until you hear a click, and the card is locked into place.
4. Close the storage card slot door.
When you select the
Save As
option in an application, the storage card appears in the list of
available storage locations.
Note:
Do not store required data or applications to a storage card if the card will be removed.
Data saved to a storage card is available only when the card is inserted in the handheld.
To remove the storage card from the storage card slot, gently press the card in and then let
go. The card pops out.
Encrypting files on storage cards
To prevent sensitive data on an SD or SDHC card from being used if the card is lost or stolen,
files can be encrypted as they are placed on the card.
When encryption is enabled, an encryption key is stored on the handheld. Files are
encrypted as they are copied or written to the storage card. Files already saved on storage
cards before enabling encryption are not automatically encrypted.
Note:
Because the encryption key is stored on the handheld, encrypted files are only readable
on the handheld on which they are initially encrypted. It is not possible to read encrypted files
on the storage card with any other device, including another STONEX S7 series handheld or
an office computer.
Note:
If you reset the handheld to the factory default settings, the encryption key is deleted
and the handheld is no longer able to read any encrypted files on a storage card. This means
that any files you have encrypted are permanently locked and unreadable by any device. To
avoid being unable to read previously encrypted files, STONEX recommends that you use
