Installing a PCMCIA Flash Card
The control module PCMCIA flash card contains a version of the system image software that is
installed at the factory. If you have a more recent system image and want to boot the X-Pedition
using the newer software, you must boot either from a PCMCIA card or from a TFTP server.
To install a PCMCIA card:
1. Power off the X-Pedition.
Cautions: Do NOT install or remove a PCMCIA card while the X-Pedition is running.
2. Insert the PCMCIA card into the upper slot on the control module, pressing firmly to ensure
that the card is fully seated.
