CompactFlash cards are designed with flash technology, a non-volatile storage solution
that can retain data indefinitely without a battery. The cards are solid state, meaning they
contain no moving parts, and provide much greater protection of data than conventional
magnetic disk drives.
The D400 contains two CompactFlash cards on the main board to store software and data:
Main CompactFlash card located at connector P2 stores system firmware
User CompactFlash card located at connector P1 is accessible from the front panel
and stores system data such as event logs

GE part number: 160-0139 (1 GB Industrial Temp CompactFlash, DMA Access) for the
