CompactFlash cards

CompactFlash cards provide a wide range of additional functionality, such as additional memory, removable storage, connection to an external monitor, connection to a network, and modems. Many cards have been tested specifically for use with the HP Jornada. For a list of recommended cards, visit the HP Web site at www.hp.com/jornada.

Before you can use a particular card, you may need to install the software driver for that card. The software drivers for the Windows for Pocket PC operating system should be available from the card’s manufacturer. Install software drivers as you would install any other software or program. For more information, see the Adding or removing programs section in chapter 5.

To install a CompactFlash card

1.Open the door to the CompactFlash slot.2.Insert the CompactFlash card into the slot.

If you are using a CompactFlash memory card or another card that does not require a cable, you can close the door to the CompactFlash slot while the card is installed in your HP Jornada.

If you are using a CompactFlash Card modem or NIC, which requires a cable connection to the card, the cable connector will protrudes from the slot, and you cannot close the door. Slide the door into the casing of the device parallel to the CompactFlash card until it is recessed inside your HP Jornada.
