Product overview
Embedded PC 21
Compact Flash slot
A Compact Flash slot is provided at the front of module. This enables an additional Compact Flash memory medium
(format I or II) to be operated. The change - in case of the Basic CPU module CF slot - is only allowed while the
system is powered down - otherwise the system could crash. In case of using the CF-slot extension (CXxxxx-A001)
the CF card can be removed after signing out the media from the system. The card can be removed for maintenance
or to extend the system storage capacity. The Compact Flash cards (CF cards) are available as accessories with
different storage capacities.
As example the following pictures show the handling of the CF cards with a CX1000 system. Activating the eject
mechanism below the slot with a screwdriver causes the card to be ejected by approx. 4 mm (FIGURE 1), so that it
can be pulled out (FIGURE 2). If the card is pushed in (FIGURE 3), the eject mechanism will re-engage. The card is
positioned correctly, if it is located approx. 1 mm lower than the front of the housing.

Warning
The Compact Flash slot is a memory interface, not an I/O type CF slot.
