Initializing A Memory Card - Fluke Hydra Series II User Manual

Initializing a Memory Card

Perform the procedure in Figure 3-3 to initialize (format) a memory card. Memory cards
can also be formatted at a PC if it is equipped with a memory card reader. (Formatting at
a PC uses the format utility supplied with the memory card reader.)When the memory
card is formatted, a standard DOS file system and directory are put into the memory on
the card. To exit at any time (formatting not completed), press the C key.
Any scan data that may be stored in the internal memory waiting to be
written to a valid memory card (see paragraph 3-8 Changing the Memory
Card During Scanning) will be lost when formatting a memory card.
