  • Page 10: Recommended Memory Sticks

    Jump to: Table of Content The appropriate memory size also depends on the intended use. Due to the technology, memory sticks with an extremely high capacity are typically less robust than smaller memory sizes. The loggers have a "ring memory" that can be optionally activated. If the memory stick becomes full (approx. less than 100MB free memory) the oldest files are deleted - this is a useful setting for some applications.
