The SD card slot on the front of the unit is used for reprogramming the unit.

If you have been asked to create the card to reprogram the unit, you should:

1. Insert card into reader/writer. SD card must be 1 gigabyte or smaller.
2. Unzip the file provided into a directory on the PC.
3. Format the card to erase all current files residing on the card.
4. Copy all of the files in the directory to the SD card. Copy only the files to the card, not the directory or the zip file.
5. Remove card and place into display for programming.
