Hello folks,

On the BrailleNote mPower, you can format SD cards with a program, that actually prepares the SD card for an upgrade file to be copied to it - that is to say, the card is formatted as FAT.

If you wish to format your SD card, remembering that all current data will be erased in doing so, insert your SD card and from the main menu go to the utilities/application menu and browse to the KeySoft System disk/Windows directory. When prompted for the program name, choose prepare sd card for upgrade and press enter. Press enter again at the command line.

For the sake of clarity, Remember that no upgrade has been released to date and other files may be copied to the card as should have been the case before the program mentioned above was executed.

Regards,

Only format cards in a PC, the BN family of products doesn't format correctly.

Subject: [Braillenote] SD cards

Hi,

Well, I'm beginning to wonder if these SD cards are going to prove to be as tempermental as floppy disks. Perish the thought! My 1 gb SD card works fine but my 256 mb card keeps giving me an error message. Sometimes it says "unspecified error" and other times "can't read or write to the specified device". Great. What could I do, try reformatting it? And can I do that in the braillenote? Thanks. I tried a regular reset but that didn't help.

Pam
