Replacing the CompactFlash
At some point, you will probably need to remove the CompactFlash (CF)
card from the PA PowerStation flash socket for one reason or another. To
do so, complete the following steps:
1 Turn off the PA PowerStation.
Caution: The PowerStation must be turned off when inserting or
removing the CF card to avoid corrupting data.
2 Locate the ejector next to the CF socket similiar to that shown in
Figure 4-2.
Figure 4-2: CompactFlash Ejector.
3 Push the ejector button two times, once to extend the button, then
again to pop out the CF card.
4 Remove the CF card.
5 Carefully insert the new card with the connector on the card aligning
with the pins inside the socket.
6 Push the CF card into the slot until the card is securely seated in the
socket. Do not force!
Note: The CompactFlash has an arrow near one edge that always lines up
with a matching arrow on the label of the PA PowerStation. Insert the
CompactFlash so the arrows line up and the card seats properly. Do
not force the CompactFlash in the wrong way.
If you need additional storage capacity for the PA PowerStation, you can
purchase additional CompactFlash cards from Parker. Be sure to purchase
at least one additional flash card to serve as a backup for your primary
card.
