Hardware Configuration
For applications using the PCMCIA card only for expanded memory capacity
within the OMP-MODL, the only components required are the MLIM-5 and
one or more memory cards (formatted for us with the OMP-MODL PCMCIA
card system). The MLIM-5 module should be installed per the Interface
Module instructions in Chapter 3. Memory cards for use in this system are
supplied pre-formatted from Omega Engineering Incorporated.
Software Configuration
No special software configuration is required. When the MLIM-5 is installed
in the OMP-MODL, the OMP-MODL will auto-detect the presence of the
module.
Operation of the MLIM-5 and PCMCIA Memory Card:
To use the PCMCIA card for data storage...
1. STOP the OMP-MODL. Cycle the OMP-MODL power to
OFF.
2. Visually inspect the formatted and prepared (as supplied
from Omega Engineering Incorporated ) PCMCIA card
connector for any debris in any of the connector holes
and clean if necessary.
The Write Protect switch located on the end of the card
opposite the connector should be slid away from the WP
position to enable writing of data to the memory card
(Refer to Figure 6... -1).
3. Orient the card with the top label facing the top of the
OMP-MODL and slide the card fully into the card slot in
Option Port 2. Upon full insertion, the Eject button next
to the slot will be fully extended.
4. Turn the OMP-MODL Power ON. Press the ENABLE
button.
5. The PCMCIA card will be automatically detected and
the LCD will display ENABLED - PCMCIA. All logged
data will be stored in the PCMCIA card.
♦
If the OMP-MODL displays STOPPED after Enabling,
the Write Protect switch on the PCMCIA card is in the
PROTECT position. Correct and reinsert the card.
Press ENABLE and observe the display.
♦
If the PCMCIA card does not contain the proper format
and support files (as supplied from Omega Engineering
Incorporated) a message on the display will indicate
CARD ERROR. The card must be reformatted and the
support files rewritten before use. Refer to the PCMCIA
Miscellaneous Section (near end of this chapter) for
details on reformatting cards.
