Installing - Formatting a Compact Flash Card
(Quick Format)
You can copy saved test results and user defined auto-
tests to a Type I Compact Flash Memory Card (FAT16
formatted) for backup purposes.
Only data media formatted with FAT16 are supported, i.e.
compact flash memory cards with 32MB to 1GB can be
used.
It is possible to store up to 512 files on a compact flash
memory card, with respect to card memory size
(1 download set = 1 file).
Compact flash cards vary in their specification and some
can cause interface problems with the Fluke 6500, due
the internal CF card design which may change from time
to time.
A document with recommendations of some tested CF
card brands and sizes is provided in the scope of supply
of every tester.
