Figure 3.87 – Transfer Main Menu

From this screen, additional screens are used to perform the various
functions involving the flash memory. The screen shows the current
access level of the operator interface. Any operation that will alter
the contents of the flash memory or of the drive requires the access
level to be something other than 'Monitor'. At the 'Monitor' level you
may view the contents of the flash card. To change the access level,
press the [F8] key. Refer to the section Enter/Modify an Access
Level .

Format Flash Card


Flash card files have a characteristic unlike normal DOS files. They
can not be modified once written. New files can be added to the
card; however they cannot be selectively removed.


When a new flash card is to be used or all the files removed from an
existing card, the card must first be formatted. Formatting erases all
data on the card and creates a DOS file structure.


To format a card press the [F2] key on the TRANSFER screen. The
screen will appear as in Figure 3.88, indicating the operation you are
about to perform and showing the current status of the operation. (If
nothing happens then you have not gained the required access to
modify the flash memory. Exit to the TRANSFER screen and refer
to the section entitled Enter/Modify an Access Level to gain access).
