1.3.3 Data Storage Concept
Description Data is stored on a memory device. The memory device can be an SD card, Compact-
Flash card, USB stick or internal memory.
Memory device
While other SD cards or CompactFlash cards can be used, Leica Geosystems
recommends to only use Leica SD cards or Leica CompactFlash cards and is
not responsible for data loss or any other error that can occur while using a
non-Leica card.
Removing the SD card, CompactFlash card or USB stick while the CS field controller is
turned on can cause loss of data. Only remove the SD card, CompactFlash card or USB
stick or unplug connecting cables when the CS field controller is switched off.
SD card: All CS field controllers have an SD card slot fitted as
standard. An SD card can be inserted and removed. Avail-
able capacity: 1 GB.
CompactFlash card: All CS field controllers have a CF card slot fitted as
standard. A CompactFlash card can be inserted and
removed. Available capacity: 256 MB, 1 GB.
USB stick: All CS field controllers have a USB port fitted as standard.
Internal memory: All CS field controllers have an internal memory fitted as
standard. Available capacity: 1 GB.
