controlled.
IMPORTANT:
when Nomad is setup to allow mirroring mode to be remembered (automatically turned on)
after a power cycle, if a CF card is not installed in the Mirror slot after the unit boots-up, mirror mode will be
turned off and must be manually turned on by the user when a valid Mirror Card is inserted.

Figure 2-27 Primary CF page
This page allows for the control of the primary CompactFlash card.
Delete last segment erases the last recorded segment. This function is not recommended as erasing files can
create differences between mirrored media and the primary card. Erase current folder clears only the current
folder leaving the other folders untouched. Format CF card will completely erase the contents of the card.
Nomad will ask if you are sure as this function erases primary card contents that cannot be recovered.
IMPORTANT:
the card format is Zaxcom MARF. This format is not FAT32 compatible and if you want to use
it with a Mac or PC platform it must be read with ZaxConvert.
IMPORTANT:
the primary and mirror cards must be formatted by Nomad before use.
NOTE:
currently, 32gig cards are the largest recommend for use. Check with Zaxcom for a current update on
this restriction.
