5-6 File Transfer
The MSU-700A/750 permits you to store the reference
file and scene files you have made in IC memory card
and use them when required.
Reference files can be stored one by one, and the scene
files are stored in groups of five files (scene-file
group).

open the card operation block.
(There is no cover for the card slot of the MSU-
750.)

Insert the card into the slot.
When the card is correctly set, the ACCESS
indicator lights in green.
Note
The data in the memory card is maintained by the
battery built into the card. If the battery is exhausted,
the data in the card will be lost. You can check the
battery condition by the ACCESS indicator (see next
page). If the battery becomes weak, replace the battery
with a new one as soon as possible.
For replacement of the battery, refer to the instructions
supplied with the IC memory card.
To eject a card
Press the card eject button.
Note
Do not eject a card when the ACCESS indicator is lit
in red (it means that the data is being read from or
written to the card). This may erase data stored in the
card.
