Writing Data
Data can be written to a memory card until no space is left for storing. When writing to a
memory card, a name is assigned to the file automatically. You can use the procedure
explained in the section
Printing a List of Data Names (Partitions) on page 3-65
to print a
list of data names for confirmation.
To write data to a memory card, proceed as follows.
Note
First check that the memory card is properly formatted. Otherwise, the

message to be explained below will not be shown on the message display. If the
memory card inserted in the memory card slot is not formatted, the
>Format
will
automatically appear on the message display. Format the memory card. See
