rent slide is retained. When you return back to the Viewer, you will get the slide

Digital images can be played with the Viewer if the following conditions
are met:
•If the image can be stored on an MS-DOS format PC card
•If the image can be stored in a format supported by the Viewer. With
the Viewer, images on the card are searched for in directories and
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.

card (Capture)
The Capture features allows you to capture an image from a source that

feature is not available.
*The Card Error display means that the free space of the PC card is insufficient
for saving images. Make more space available on the card by erasing un-
wanted images with your PC. The number of images that can be captured
depends on the size of the PC card.
*Be sure not to turn off the power or remove the PC card while capturing an
image. Doing so could cause a loss of the data in the PC card or damage to the
card itself.
