Enable Writing on a SD Card
SD cards have a write protect slide on the side of the card. If the write protect slide is moved to the
protected position, no data is written on the SD card. If you insert a write protected Data SD card, a
message displays on the Luminex indicating the SD card is write protected.
To allow data to be written to the Data SD card:
1. Hold the SD card with the notched side up.
2. Move the write protect slide to the Up position.
Remove or Insert a SD Card
SD cards are “keyed” so that they can only be inserted in one direction. When inserted properly, the
SD card easily moves in and out of the slot although the locking mechanism is tight to prevent
accidental removal of the card. Attempting to force a SD card into the slot on your Luminex or USB
SD Flash Drive reader could damage the card.
Remove a Data or Backup SD card:
1. Use your index finger to gently push the SD card to its unlocked state and then release your finger.
You should feel the SD card release from the slot.
2. Remove the card from the slot. You should be able to easily remove the card from the slot. If you
cannot easily remove the card, it is not released. The SD lock mechanism is tight to prevent
accidental removal of the card. Repeat Step 1.
Insert a Data or Backup SD card:
1. Hold the card with the notched edge facing the Luminex and the metal strip facing down. Position
the card in front of the SD slot without any angling.
2. Gently push the card into the SD slot on the Luminex or a USB SD Flash Drive reader on your
computer. You may hear a soft click as you insert the card, indicating correct placement. If the
card does not easily insert into the slot, do not force it. Remove the card and reinsert it.
If the Data SD card in the Luminex Data SD card slot is write protected, a message displays: Data SD
card is Write Protected. Writing is not possible until you unlock the card.
USB SD Flash Drive Reader
A USB SD Flash Drive reader comes with your Luminex. The USB SD Flash Drive reader plugs into a
USB port on your computer and holds the Data SD and Backup SD cards. This allows you to read
steno notes, job dictionaries and audio files.
If you have an SD slot built into your computer, insert the Data SD card directly into the slot. You may
not need the USB SD Flash Drive reader for all read functions.
