Troy, you should add this to the Wiki. Nice work.

ok -


Insert the new SD card into your PC or external SD card reader on the PC

Start the EZ Scan app

In the EZ Scan app "Scanner/SD Card" menu, select "Prepare Scanner Memory/SD card for use"

Follow the instructions on the screen

Make sure the correct drive is highlighted (the one with the SD card in it).

Check the box that says "Copy Library files to SD Card after format"

The "Use Quick Format Option" checked. I usually uncheck this.

Press the "Format" button - you'll get a warning/prompt to confirm the formatting.

If you're sure you've selected the correct drive/SD card, press the "Yes" button. A DOS/Command prompt window will open. You need to confirm in the window you want to proceed (press the ENTER key to continue).

Let the format run -- it will show you the progress.

When the format is complete, the DOS/Command prompt will close and EZ Scan will popup another window showing the library files being copied to the SD card.

When the copy is complete, press the "Close" button on the format popup.

To copy your VFolder(s), select "Copy Configuration to Scanner Memory/SD Card" in the "Scanner/SD Card" menu.

Confirm the overwrite warning (you aren't overwriting anything - you just formatted the SD card).

Select/confirm the newly formatted SD card is selected in the "Select SD Card...." popup.

A window will popup showing the Vfolders that you have programmed. Select the ones you want to copy to the SD card (solid dots in the first column are the ones you will be copying to the SD card).

Press the "Copy Folders" button. The copy will start.

When the copy finishes a "Complete" dialog box will appear. Press the "OK" button.

Close EZ Scan.

Release the SD card (using the MS Windows to "Safely Release Hardware and Eject Media", etc.).

Remove the SD card from the PC.

Make sure the radio is powered off

Carefully remove the current SD card from the radio

Carefully insert the new SD card.

Power the radio up and make sure the card formatting and copying worked.

Done.
