3.2.8 CF Card Insertion/Removal
Prior to inserting or removing a CF Card, be sure to confirm that the PS-A unit is turned
OFF. If you do not, CF Card internal data may be damaged or lost or the OS may stop.
While a CF Card is being accessed (IDE Access Lamp: Lit in green), NEVER turn OFF or
reset the PS-A, or insert or remove the CF Card. If you do not, CF Card internal data may
be damaged or lost.
Prior to inserting a CF Card, familiarize yourself with the CF Card’s front and rear face
orientation, as well as the CF Card connector’s position. If the CF Card is not correctly
positioned when it is inserted into the Multi Unit, the CF Card’s internal data, CF Card and
the PS-A unit may be damaged or broken.
Be sure to use only CF Cards manufactured by the Pro-face. The CF Card’s internal data
may be damaged when using another manufacturer’s CF Card.
Once PS-A data is lost, it cannot be recovered. Since accidental data loss can occur at any
time, be sure to back up all PS-A screen and CF Card data regularly.
Be sure to follow the instructions given below to prevent the CF Card’s internal data from
being destroyed or a CF Card malfunction from occurring:
• DO NOT bend the CF Card.
• DO NOT drop or strike the CF Card against another object.
• Keep the CF Card dry.
• DO NOT touch the CF Card connectors.
• DO NOT disassemble or modify the CF Card.
