Formatting USB storage media
When accessing a USB storage device or media, a
message may appear prompting you to format the
device/media. If so, execute the Format operation
NOTICE
The format operation overwrites any previously existing
data. Make sure that the media you are formatting does not
contain important data.
To protect your data (write-protect)
To prevent important data from being inadvertently
erased, apply the write-protect provided with each
storage device or media. If you are saving data to the
USB storage device, make sure to disable write-pro-
tect.
Connecting/removing USB storage device
Before removing the media from the device, make sure
that the instrument is not accessing data (such as in the
Save and Format operations).
NOTICE
Avoid frequently turning the power on/off to the USB storage
device, or connecting/disconnecting the device too often.
Doing so may result in the operation of the instrument
“freezing” or hanging up. While the instrument is accessing
data (such as during Save and Format operations) or is
mounting the USB storage device (shortly after the connec-
tion), do NOT unplug the USB connector, do NOT remove the
media from the device, and do NOT turn the power off to
either device. Doing so may corrupt the data on either or
both devices.
