Figure 3–1. Processor Module
A super capacitor in the processor module provides backup power for the
system’s clock and its memory in case of power failure or system shutdown. The
super capacitor retains data for four to five days.
PCMCIA Memory Card 3
The processor includes 4 MB of on-board memory that can be erased and written
over multiple times. A PCMCIA memory card can be used to install or upgrade the
system software into this memory. A memory card can also be used to back up
and restore system programming.
There are different types of memory cards, each about the size of a credit card.
Their labels indicate contents and function. Described below are three types of
PCMCIA memory cards that you may encounter. For more information, see
