HARDWARE

Below is a photo of a UniConn Memory Module.

This card form factor is available in several memory sizes. Currently the only size card supported
is a 32 Megabit (4 Megabyte). This card is divided into 8192 pages. Each page holds 512 bytes of

Schlumberger Private
memory. The card uses Flash technology; this means that the card has a limited number of reads
and writes. However for our operation this will not be an issue. In future (if required) larger
memory devices will be supported.

location.

Installing the correct drivers will vary depending on the version of Windows you are running.

Uninstalling Drivers

When uninstalling devices from Windows 2000, it should always be done through the
Add/Remove Programs utility as this uses the FTDI driver uninstaller program to remove files and
registry entries to leave a clean system. Other methods may leave fragments of the driver that
may interfere with future installations.

Windows 2000

To uninstall D2XX drivers for FT232BM, FT245BM, FT8U232AM and FT8U245AM devices, follow
the instructions below:

Disconnect any FTDI devices that are attached to the PC.

Schlumberger Private

Select "FTDI D2XX USB Drivers" from the list of installed programs

Click the "Change/Remove" button. This will run the FTDI uninstaller program.

the appropriate connection and selecting "Disable" from the menu. The connection can be re-
enabled after the installation is complete. This is NOT necessary under Windows XP SP 2 if
