Chapter 11. Using a memory card
About memory cards
The SP-505 uses commercially available SmartMedia (power
supply voltage 3.3 V, capacity: 8 MB–128 MB) as memory
cards.
1 MB/2 MB/4 MB SmartMedia cannot be used.
SmartMedia can be purchased at a nearby computer
dealer or digital camera dealer.
* Please read and observe the instructions included with the
SmartMedia.
Inserting a memory card
Memory cards (SmartMedia) must only be inserted
when the SP-505’s power is switched OFF. If the power
is on when you insert a card, not only the memory card,
but also the internal data can be destroyed.
Never turn on the power when a memory card
(SmartMedia) is inserted halfway. Doing so will destroy
the internal memory data.
If you insert or remove a card with the power turned on,
or turn on the power when a card is inserted halfway, a
message of “WARNING! Data Maybe Damaged!” will
appear, and operation will stop. If this occurs, turn off
the power, insert the card all the way or remove it, and
then turn the power on once again.
Insert the memory card (SmartMedia) all the way into
the slot, making sure that the correct side is facing up,
and the correct end is pointing in.
