Leica Digital-Modul-R - Memory Card and Storage Recommendations

For the charger
• If the charger is used in the vicinity of radio
receivers, it can interfere with the reception; make
sure there is a distance of at least 1m between the
devices.
• When the charger is in use, it can make a noise
(buzzing) – this is quite normal and is not a mal-
function.
• When it is not in use, disconnect the charger from
the mains as otherwise it uses a certain (very small)
amount of power even when the camera is turned
off and the battery is not being used.
• Always keep the charger’s contacts clean.
For memory cards
• Whilst a picture is being stored or the memory card
is being read, it may not be removed, and the Digital-
Modul-R may not be turned off or exposed to vibra-
tions.
• For safety, memory cards should only ever be stored
in the antistatic case supplied.
• Do not store memory cards where they will be
exposed to high temperatures, direct sunlight, elec-
tromagnetic fields or static discharge.
• Do not drop or bend a memory card as this can dam-
age it and result in loss of the stored data.
• Always remove the memory card if you will not be
using the Digital-Modul-R for a long time.
• Do not touch the connections on the rear of the
memory card and keep them free of dirt, dust and
moisture.
• It is recommended that the memory card be format-
ted from time to time as the fragmentation that
occurs when deleting can block some of the memory
capacity.
Storage
• Always remove the battery and memory card when
storing the Digital-Modul-R.
• The Digital-Modul-R should preferably be stored in a
closed and padded case, so that nothing can damage
it and it is protected from dust.
• Store the Digital-Modul-R in a location that is not
exposed to high temperatures or moisture. When
used in humid conditions, the Digital-Modul-R should
be completely free of all moisture before being
stored away.
• To prevent the formation of fungus, do not store the
Digital-Modul-R in a leather case for long periods of
time.
Data structure on the memory card
When the data stored on a card is transferred to a
computer, the following folder structure is used:
Up to 999 pictures can be stored in each of the folders
100LEICA , 101LEICA etc.
