images in JPEG or BMP format are recognized as slides. Searchable
directories are directories within two steps from the root directory,
and searchable images are images within the first 12 files in the di-
rectory. Only file and slide switching are possible.
NOTE:  The maximum number of images recognized as slides within one direc-tory is 128.

ufficient

an
image. Doing so could cause a loss of the data in the PC card or damage \
