The WRITE/CARD IN USE LED

16. CARD EDIT ENVIRONMENT
The Card Edit environment is the place where you can
manage files. This edit environment overlaps the cur‐
rent operating mode (Style Play, Song Play, Backing
Sequence, Song, Program).
THE WRITE/CARD IN USE LED
When the drive is reading or writing data on a card, the
WRITE/CARD IN USE indicator lights up. While in a
Card page, the "Wait" message appears in the display;
in this situation, you can't select a different Card page
(you can, however, select a different operative mode).
Warning! Never remove a card when the WRITE/CARD IN
USE LED is turned on!

SUPPORTED CARDS

You can use the following types of cards to save or load
data to and from the microARRANGER's internal
memory:
• SD (High Speed, Ultra II, SDHC)
• MMC
• MicroSD with an SD adapter
• MiniSD with an SD adapter
Note: Before you can use the SD/MMC card, you must format
it on the microARRANGER. Don't use your computer or digi‐
tal camera to format (initialize) a card you plan to use with the
microARRANGER. If the card was formatted on a different
device, it may not work correctly with the microARRANGER
Note: The SD/MMC card is not included. It must be purchased
separately.
Note: The microARRANGER supports SD cards with a power
supply voltage of 2.7–3.6V.
SD and MMC card handling
• Do not remove the card from the drive while the
microARRANGER is reading or saving data.
• The SD/MMC card may be hot immediately follow‐
ing use. Power‐off the microARRANGER and wait for
the card to cool before removing it.
• SD/MMC cards are precision parts. Do not bend
them, drop them, or subject them to physical shock.
• Avoid using or storing SD/MMC cards in locations of
extremely high or low temperature such as in direct
sunlight, a closed automobile, or near a heater, or in
locations of high humidity or excessive dust.
• Avoid using or storing SD/MMC cards in locations
where they may be subject to strong static electricity or
electrical noise.
• Do not allow dirt or foreign matter to adhere to the
contacts of an SD/MMC card. If the contacts should
become soiled, gently wipe them off using a dry cloth.
• When you are not using an SD/MMC card, keep it in
the protective case that was included with the card to
prevent it from being damaged by static electricity.
• Do not leave an SD/MMC card where it is accessible
by infants or children who might place it in their
mouth and swallow it.
• Carefully read and observe the owner's manual
included with your SD/MMC card.
Write protecting an SD card
SD cards have a write protect switch that prevents the
data from being overwritten accidentally and lost. If
you set the card's switch to the protected setting, it will
be impossible to write or erase data on the card, or to
format it. If you need to save edited data on the card,
move the switch back to its original unprotected set‐
ting.
