3.5 Archiving
Recorded data, logs and configuration files stored on the instrument's internal memory can be archived to files created on removable
media. Parameters for archiving Process Groups 1 and 2 data are set up independently.
Card Compatibility
Our recorders comply with approved industry standards for memory cards. SanDisk Standard Grade memory cards have been fully
tested and are recommended for use with our recorders. Other brands may not be fully compatible with this device and therefore may
not function correctly.
3.5.1 SmartMedia Handling and Care
Follow the manufacturers' recommendations.
1. Avoid touching the gold connectors on SmartMedia cards to prevent damage to the card from static electricity. Before touching
a memory card, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by touching a grounded metal object.
2. Keep the gold contacts on the card clean to prevent card corruption on insertion of the card. Clean the contacts using a soft,
clean cloth before re-insertion in the instrument.
3. Do not bend the card or subject it to impacts.
4. Keep the card in an anti-static case when not in use.
5. Do not place the card in direct sunlight.
