Sharp IQ-8900 - Manual (Page 242)

Sharing data
with another
unit
1.
2.
When you restore data from a RAM card, any existing
information in the unit will be lost.
Data and entries can be transferred easily and quickly
between Series units simply by swapping a
RAM card between them. You can receive data from
7000 and 8000 Series models (you cannot, however,
move data from your unit to these models), and then
work with that data, but it must first be converted into the
format used on your unit.
l
Applications may not match on different unit models.
Entries can only be transferred if there is a matching
application on the receiving unit.
l
Memo entries from the 7000 and 8000 Series
Organizers will be transferred to the Notebook, and
Business Card entries from the 8000 Series will be
transferred to USER FILE 1 in the User File
application. All other matching applications will share
the same name.
l
A RAM card used with a password in a 7000 or 8000
Series Organizer cannot be used with this unit. You
must first delete the password from the card in the
other unit.
l
There are a few other restrictions for receiving
Series data via a RAM card. These are the
same as for receiving data directly from a
Series Organizer. See p. 274.
To use data from Series Organizers:
Turn the unit off and install the RAM card that has
Series data stored on it.
Turn on the unit.
A message appears.
The format of the RAM card is
different from that of the main unit.
If you want to access the data on it:
1) Select an Application (i.e.
2) Press [MENU] then [PERIPHERALS].
3) Select IMPORT OTHER FORMAT.
4) Select VIA RAM CARD.
