Using a CompactFlash Card

Your CASSIOPEIA supports Type I and Type II CompactFlash cards (3.3V).

Important

∙The card slot cover will not close when certain types of cards are in the slot. Remove the card slot cover and keep it in a safe place so you can replace it when you remove the card.

∙Gently but firmly slide the card into place as far as it will go, but do not force it. Forcing a card can damage connectors. If you have problems inserting a card, pull it out and check to make sure it is oriented correctly.

∙We strongly recommend that you store all unsaved data you are inputting or editing before performing this procedure.

∙Sometimes, your CASSIOPEIA may not be able to detect a CompactFlash card. This is indicated when a program on the card does not start up normally. When this happens, remove the card, reinsert it, and then press the CASSIOPEIA RESET button.

∙Your CASSIOPEIA supports 3.3V CompactFlash cards only. Cards that can operate on 5.0V only are not supported.

∙Use of an IO card that requires large amounts of power can cause the CASSIOPEIA to restart when CASSIOPEIA battery power is low.

1. Make sure your CASSIOPEIA is turned off.

∙Press the [Power] button to turn off power.

2. Pressing upward at the point indicated in the illustration, slide the cover up to open it.
