Compact Flash Card
Important
z If a card is removed while the VA-11 is turned
on, data on the card may be lost.

use any cards other than the type specified.

Writing mass memory data
The entire contents of the mass memory are written to the card as one MS-
DOS format ASCII file. The size of the file depends on the type and amount of
data contained in the memory of the VA-11. The following figures are given
as an approximate reference.
Transient data, 500 addresses: approx. 1.56 megabytes
Spectrum data, 500 addresses: approx. 0.5 megabytes
Time display data: approx. 1710 bytes per address
Spectrum dB data: approx. 1016 bytes per address
Spectrum linear data: approx. 1242 bytes per address
