PC CARDS THAT CAN BE USED
Use a 5 V ATA card TYPE I-III that is a PCMCIA Rel. 2.0/JEIDA Ver. 4.0 or later, recommended by Fujitsu.
A PC card is not supplied. A recommended version must be purchased separately.
CAUTION
• Do not use a card that operates on 3.3 V, as this can cause operation problems.
• Certain PC cards (not recommended by Fujitsu) can damage the Plasmavision or the card.
PC card
This refers to the card standardized jointly by JEIDA and PCMCIA.
ATA
ATA is short for AT Attachment, which is the interface and protocol that the AT-compatible computer uses for access-
ing the hard disk.
JEIDA
JEIDA is short for the Japan Electronic Industry Development Association. This organization has promulgated the
standardization of specifications for IC memory cards, and has settled on common specifications.
PCMCIA
PCMCIA is short for the Personal Computer Memory Card International Association. This organization has devised
joint memory card standardization based on the common specifications of JEIDA. Currently, this activity covers not
only memory cards but all types of I/O cards. These cards are referred to as PC cards, and their standardization (PC
Card Standard) has been completed.
CAUTION
Using the PC card
• Do not bend the card or subject it to strong mechanical shocks.
• Do not use or store the card where static electricity or electrical noise can occur easily.
• Do not use or store the card in hot, humid, dusty or corrosive environments.
• Do not allow grime or foreign matter into the connectors.
• Do not allow the card to place near open flames or to be thrown into a fire, as this is dangerous.
• The card has a limited life. If it is used for a lengthy time, it may become impossible to record data on it.
• Do not touch the PC card or card with wet hands.
PC card and Data
• The customer or a third party may use the card wrongly or expose the card to static electricity or electrical
noise. The ensuing malfunctions or repairs may result in wiping out the data on the PC card or card. Keep
in mind that Fujitsu cannot be responsible for losses incurred because the PC card has been damaged
and recorded data wiped out.
• Do not turn off the power while the PC card is being accessed. Doing so can destroy data on the card.
