Quick Reference
Inserting a Compact Flash CardThe PDT 8100 contains a slot for a standard compact flash card,
which includes a locking mechanism that prevents the card from
coming loose if the PDT 8100 is dropped. Insert the compact fl ash
card carefully to ensure it engages this locking mechanism.
1. Open the battery door and remove the battery.
2. Remove the flash card cover at the top of the battery com-
partment by pulling the top out, and lifting the cover up.
3. Insert the flash card into the compartment with the pins fac-
ing forward, and the main label facing down. It only fits one
way. The two metal tabs on the locking mechanism will pre-
vent you from pushing the card all the way in.
4. To fit the card into place, push down and in at the same time ,
so that the lip of the compact flash card slips under the tabs
of the locking mechanism.
5. Replace the flash card cover by inserting the bottom first,
and pressing the top in.
Note: After you insert or remove a compact flash card, you
must replace the flash card cover or the terminal will
not function.
6. Reinsert the battery and battery door.
7. Perform a soft reset (see Performing a Soft Reset on page
27).
