2.8 Handling of the CF Card
Handling Precautions of the CF Card
Note the following points when using the CF card. For the general handling precautions
of the CF card, see the instruction manual that came with the card.
• The CF card is a precision electronic device. Do not use or store the CF card in an
environment with strong static electricity or an environment where electric noise tends
to appear.
• Do not remove the CF card from the card slot while data is being written. Doing so can
damage or erase the data.

To insert the CF card into the card slot, open the slot cover and face the card’s front side
to the right.

Ejecting the CF Card
Be sure to check that the CF card is not being accessed before ejecting the card from
the slot. When the CF card is being accessed, the 7-segment LED indicates this fact (see
page 1-9).
To eject the CF card, open the slot cover while touching the metal for discharging the
static electricity, and press the eject lever once. Then, press the eject lever that came out
once again, and remove the CF card from the slot.

Note
•
If it is difficult to press the eject lever with your finger, use an object with a narrow tip such
as a pen as shown in the figure above.
•
Do not close the slot cover by force when the eject lever is out. Doing so can damage the
CF card slot. When not using the eject lever, push the lever in so that the slot cover can be
closed.
•
If you need to eject the CF card while it is being accessed (when the operation mode is
backup), open the slot cover, and press the access stop switch (see the figure above) at
the top section of the slot. After the data save operation to the CF card stops (the operation
mode on the 7-segment LED described on page 1-8 changes from backup to measurement),
eject the CF card.
