Inserting A Smartmedia Card - Dazzle DCS 200 User Manual

Inserting a SmartMedia Card

Before you insert a SmartMedia card, be sure to place the DCS 200 in it's stand with the
Dazzle logo on the right-hand side. To insert a SmartMedia Card, follow these steps:
1. Position the SmartMedia card in the direction shown in the illustration below.
Note: The DCS 200 accepts only 3.3V SmartMedia cards. It does not support 5V
SmartMedia cards.
2. Insert the card in the lower media slot with the gold contacts on the right-hand side.
The card's notch must be located in the lower corner.
Notice the notched corner of the SmartMedia card. The notch appears on the
right-hand side when you are looking directly at the gold contacts on the top of a 3.3V
SmartMedia card (see the illustration below).
Caution: Be careful not to insert the SmartMedia card in the wrong direction. Be sure
to insert the SmartMedia card with the gold contacts on the right-hand side. If it is
forced in, the card reader or the SmartMedia card may be damaged, or data on the
card may be lost or corrupted. If the computer does not recognize the media, or if it
does not fit correctly, re-position the card and try reinserting it.
3. Gently push the card in all the way until it locks in place.
Note: Do not insert a SmartMedia card in the DCS 200 card reader while capturing
video.
