• Formatting will cause all saved data to be erased, and it cannot
be undone. Check the contents of the card or memory before for
-
matting. It is recommended to back up important data on SD
memory card
s and in the instrument’s internal memory.
• Use the instrument to format SD memory cards. Formatting a
card with a co
mputer may prevent the media from being initial-
ized with the dedicated SD format, causing decreased perfor-
mance in the form of slower read and write speeds.
• The instrument can only save data to SD memory cards that
have been initialized w
ith the dedicated SD format.
