CompactFlash Card Initial Read Time
The TDS2MEM reads a CF card's internal structure every time you
insert a CF card. The time to complete the read depends on the size of
the CF card and how it was formatted. To significantly shorten the
initial read time of 64 MB and larger CF cards used in the TDS2MEM
module, format the CF card using the TDS2MEM format function
(UTILITY
File Utilities Format).
Formatting a CompactFlash Card
1. Insert a CF card into the module.
2. Push the UTILITY front panel button.
3. Select the File Utilities menu option.
4. Select the More menu option to display menu page 2.
5. Select the Format menu option.
6. Select the Yes menu option to format the CF card. Formatting
deletes all data on the CF card.
