5.2 Using PC Cards
Important
Use only PC Cards sold by Hioki (⇒ p. 66).
Compatibility and performance are not guaranteed for PC cards made by
other manufacturers. You may be unable to read from or save data to such
cards.
• Format new PC Cards before use.
To format with this instrument: "10.1.7 Initializing (Formatting) Storage Media"

• Be careful to avoid inserting a PC Card backwards or upside-down. The PC
Card or the instrument could be damaged.
• Never eject a PC Card while it is being accessed by the instrument. Data on
the PC Card could be lost.
• When storage media is inserted, a confirmation beep sounds, and an icon
appears in the Status bar at the lower right.

• Be sure that storage media is inserted before selecting it for saving or loading.
It cannot be displayed in the File List if it has not been inserted.
• The Flash memory in a PC Card has a limited operating life. After long-term
usage, data storage and retrieval become difficult. In this case, replace the PC
Card with a new one.
• We cannot provide compensation for data loss in a memory card, regardless of
content or cause of the damage. Always maintain a backup of important data
stored on a memory card.
