FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: What should I do if the memory card gets too hot?

  • A: It is normal for the memory card to get hot during extended use. Ensure proper ventilation and avoid covering the device to prevent overheating.

Q: How can I ensure data integrity when using the memory card?

  • A: Always align the memory card properly before insertion and removal. Avoid sudden power loss or improper removal to prevent data corruption.

Q: What is the significance of the GPIO connections?

  • A: GPIO connections allow for input and output control on the device. Refer to the user manual for detailed GPIO functionality.

Memory Card Instructions

  1. The memory card and the card slot on the device are precision electronic components. Please align to the position accurately when inserting the memory card into the card slot to avoid of damage. Please slightly push the upper edge of the card to loosen it when removing the memory card, then pull it out.
  2. It is normal when the memory card gets hot after a long time of working.
  3. The data stored on the memory card may be damaged if the card is not used correctly, even if the power is cut off or the card is pulled out when reading data.
