You cannot proceed from

available. Insert a PC-card

Step 3 (optional):
Format your memory card

Before you start logging data you
may want to (re-)format your PC-card
or your internal memory.

This step is only necessary if a
completely new PC-card is used or if
all existing data needs to be deleted!

Press 4 on the terminal or use the
Cursor key to highlight the line 4
Utilities
, then press ENTER; alterna-
tively press F1 CONT.
(If only lines 1 to 3 are visible at this
stage press F4 SHOW first).

Then press 2 to get access to the
Format Memory Module panel, or
alternatively use the cursor key to
navigate to 2 Format Memory
Module
and press ENTER; again
alternatively press F1 CONT.

The Battery Status icon at the right
side of the icon line shows from
which source the sensor is currently
powered. A and B indicate the
internal batteries, E an external
battery source. The symbol also
indicates the voltage level of the
currently used battery in 4 different
stages from "full" (fully black) to 2/3
to 1/3 and "almost flat" (white colour).

The Memory Status icon indicates
whether memory for logging data is
available or not. Options are either a
PC-card or internal memory. If a PC
card is available and configured for
use then at this stage an arrow
indicates the fact that it is safe to
remove the PC-card from the sensor.
The little bar on the right side indi-
cates the available memory on either
the PC-card or the internal memory.
