Installing the Compact Flash (PF8t Only)

The PF8t is supplied with 4MB flash memory and 8MB of SDRAM memory. The built-in memory can be expanded by using a compact flash card if more memory is required for your application. You will need to purchase and install a compact flash adapter to use a CF card.

You can select which memory source you want to use: built-in memory or compact flash. Use Windows HyperTerminal to send an ESim M command to the printer to select your memory source. You can only use one memory source.

ESim memory allocation commands are:

M0 Select built-in memory

M1 Select compact flash memory

MF Format the compact flash card

For more information on ESim commands, refer to the ESim for the PC4/PF8 Bar Code Label Printer Programmer’s Reference Manual (P/N 1-960629-xx).
