Using Memory cards

The Phase One XF System supports Type 1 CompactFlash (CF)

cards only. Phase One recommends UDMA 7 type cards (800x

speed or better) for optimal performance, however slower

cards can be used. Microdrives and CF Type II cards are not

recommended for use with IQ backs.

Installing and removing the CF Card(illustration)

Insert the CF card into the media storage slot on the left-hand

side of the IQ back.

Remove the card by pressing the black release lever just above

the card - this will extract the lever and you can now use it

to eject the card. Make sure the eject lever is correctly closed

before loading another card.

LED Lights

IQ digital backs feature two main LEDs located below the bot-

tom left corner of the screen.

Green:

When capturing an image the Green LED will blink rapidly

to indicate that the IQ back is busy. When the IQ screen is

dimmed this Green light will continuously display to indicate

that the camera is still ready to shoot.

Red:

A Red LED indicates that the IQ back is writing to the storage

media, and therefore the buer has not been emptied. There is an

additional Red LED indicator located next to the CF card slot (be-

neath the cover). It is assigned to indicate CF card activity only.

NOTE:

Do not remove a CF card from the card slot when this Red LED is on.

Removing a CF card whilst the Red LED is on can damage the format-

ting of the card, images or data may be lost or corrupted.
