3.1.4 Recorder firmware compatibility
The PCMCIA option is compatible with the 001AK recorder firmware or higher. Older firmware
revisions will not allow your recorder to recognize the PCMCIA option board, the recorder will need to be
updated (see the OVERVIEW section of this manual).

3.2 SETUP

3.2.1 PCMCIA communication interface configuration

The PCMCIA option board is detected at power up during the recorder's initialization time but, to be able
to use it, the INTERFACE parameter of the MISCELLANEOUS configuration matrix must be set to
PCMCIA.
The default configuration of this parameter is JACK, which allows to configure the recorder with the PC
Configurator software.
When the option board has been detected, the PCMCIA configuration matrices (READ-WRITE, PRINT
CONF and SERVICE) appear and this option becomes TRUE in recorder's hardware configuration (see
the CARD USED service in the MISCELLANEOUS matrix).
