Formatting A Microsd Memory Card - Yaesu FR5DR Operating Manual

Formatting a microSD Memory Card

Format a new microSD memory card following the steps below before use.
• Formatting a microSD memory card erases all data saved on it. If you are going to format
the microSD memory card you are using, be sure to check the data saved on it before
formatting.
• The microSD memory cards used in other devices may not be recognized by the FT5DR/
DE, or it may take an abnormally long time to read or write. So normally, they may not
be useable. Reading and writing of the microSD cards may be improved by using the SD
memory card formatter provided by the SD Association. The SD memory card formatter
can be downloaded from this URL (https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter/).
