Inserting the memory card

The memory card contains the data and Handheld software required for operation.

1 - Install a pull tab on the memory card

The handheld includes a number of pull tabs that you can attach to various memory cards. These pull tabs can make removing memory cards easier.

For reliable operation, 3M recommends using only SanDisk memory cards and SanDisk memory-card readers.

2 – Insert the memory card

1Grasp the memory card with the label side up.

2Push the pin-socket end of the memory card into the memory-card slot until it is completely inserted.

Messages (such as loading the database, etc.) appear on the screen.

If the memory card contains a newer version of 3M software, a dialog box will ask you if you want to install the new version.

Above the memory-card slot is a Secure Digital (SD) card slot that is not used. A small plastic panel blocks the SD slot. If the panel becomes loose, push it back into place.

Database Errors

The handheld may display No Database or Invalid Database messages.

These messages are usually the result of corrupted data on the memory card.

If you see these messages, you may have to reformat the memory card (See Formatting a memory card on page 13.)
