3.4 PCMCIA

PCMCIA cards are inserted and ejected in much the same way as diskettes.

To insert a PCMCIA card, align the card with the socket and slide the card into the socket until it locks into place. Note that some PCMCIA memory cards must be prepared by your operating system before you can use them for data storage. See your PCMCIA card manual for details.

To eject a PCMCIA card, first ensure that the panel PC is not accessing the memory card or device. Then press the appropriate eject button on the socket. When the card pops out of the socket, remove it and store it properly.
