FORMAT (CF card)
Formatting a CF card erases all audio files on the card
and prepares it for use in the PMD570.
The CF card formats used by the PMD570 are Win-
dows compatible. You can copy audio files using a
Windows compatible computer* that can read a CF
card or be connected via the I/O port.
*Or a Macintosh computer that can recognize Win-
dows compatible removable drives.
Notes:
CF cards with less than 2 GB capacity are automatically
formatted FAT16 (FAT = File Allocation Table).
CF cards with 2 - 8 GB capacity are automatically format-
ted FAT32.
