Not only will your MAX Memory card provide you with fast, reliable storage space for your Xbox 360 game saves, it can also be expanded up to 16GB (32 x 512MB Cards) using widely available Micro SD memory cards (higher capacities may be supported when cards are available). Use the included MAX Memory Card Manager PC software to browse the files stored on your MAX Memory card so they can be backed up and restored at the touch of a button. MAX Memory is ready to use with your Xbox 360 immediately: 1. Ensure that the included Micro SD memory card is securely installed into the MAX Memory card. 2. Connect the MAX Memory card to an empty memory card slot on your Xbox 360. Use the memory card as per the instructions that came with your video game or console hardware. Family Friendly ‐ Multiple 512MB Cards The Xbox 360 console only allows memory units up to 512MB to be used. Since your new MAX Memory card allows any size of SD card, including 2, 4, 8 & 16 Gigabyte Micro SD cards, these cards will be used as multiple 512MB cards on your Xbox 360. For example a 2GB SD card will become up to 4 x 512MB cards, an 8GB SD card will become up to 16 cards. That’s like a separate memory card for every member of the family! Because each SD card manufacturer may calculate a Gigabyte in a slightly different way it may be the case that the actual number of 512MB cards that you get will vary. Hence a 2GB micro SD memory when used with the Xbox 360 may appear as 3 x 512MB cards plus a forth slightly smaller capacity card. The MAX Memory card will always use the entire memory of the SD in the most efficient way. The same applies to 4GB SD which may be 7 x 512MB cards plus a slightly smaller 8th card and so on for all other sizes. Changing Cards When you first use your MAX Memory card in your Xbox 360 it will be on card 1. If you are using a micro SD which is 1GB or more then you will have more than one 512MB card available. To change to a different card simply press the page button on the front of the MAX Memory card. When using the 360 Dashboard ‘Memory’ screens, the memory card will disappear for a moment and will re‐ appear as Memory Card 2. Repeat this process to ‘Page’ through the multiple memory cards. Follow these steps to access the 360 Dashboard ‘Memory’ screens: 1. Turn on the Xbox 360 and go to the 360 dashboard/Next interface 2. Select ‘My Xbox’ 3. Select ‘System Settings’ 4. Select ‘Memory’ Using the 360 Dashboard ‘Memory’ screens you are able to confirm the memory card which you have chosen by either confirming the memory card name or contents. When you switch off your console or remove your MAX Memory card it will remember which page you were on and start on that card. This effect happens in exactly the same way when you change cards on the MAX Memory. For example if you log into a profile from card 1, then change to card 2 and then back to card 1 – to regain full access to your profile you need to log out and back in. The following situation only applies to people who DO go online with their Xbox 360 (those who connect to LIVE) and are using MAX Memory to hold their profile: As you will be aware, if you go online with your Xbox 360 console you will be required to download an Xbox 360 LIVE update. If you keep the update on your MAX memory card and you have 8 cards on a 4GB micro SD, if you want to use the update with each card then you will need to change cards and download to each card in turn. If you are using the update and you change cards, the Xbox 360 will tell you that it is going to reset – which is normal. If you intend to use one or more of your 512MB cards of the MAX Memory without the update (for example – to use a profile that you never go online with); remember that if you change from a card which does NOT have the update to one which DOES – you will need to restart your console in order to load the update. 3. Installing MAX Memory Card Manager MAX Memory Card Manager is a PC software application designed to make backing up and restoring your MAX Memory card as easy as possible. System requirements WARNING: Do not attempt to page though the multiple memory cards when not set to the 360 Dashboard. Operating System Windows XP (32bit, 64bit), Windows Vista (32bit, 64bit), Windows 7 (32bit, 64bit) Connectivity Available USB port Using Profiles with Cards Installing the software The following situation only applies to users who do NOT go online or connect to LIVE with their console and are using MAX Memory to hold their profile: There is a minor bug in the Xbox 360 dashboard (as of the current version November 2009) where if you are logged into a profile from the card, if you remove the card then re‐insert it, even though you are using the same card you will need to log out and log back in to get full access to your profile. Insert the MAX Memory Card Manager software CD ROM into your PC. If setup does not run automatically, browse to your CD drive and double click the SETUP program. Follow the on‐screen prompts until the software has successfully installed on your computer. 4. VERY IMPORTANT – Connecting to your Micro SD card To use MAX Memory Card Manager to manage your memory card connect the card to your PC as follows: 1. Insert your MAX Memory Card into the USB adaptor supplied ensuring that the contacts are correctly aligned. 2. Plug the adaptor into an available USB port on your PC. When you connect MAX Memory to your PC some versions of Windows will report that the card needs formatting. This is because the Xbox 360 uses a special file system that Windows does not recognize. You must NEVER allow Windows to format the memory card otherwise you will lose your data. If you see this message, just click CANCEL. MAX Memory Card Manager will still be able to work with the card perfectly. If you do accidentally allow Windows to format your Micro SD card, follow the instructions in Section 7 to reformat the card for use with your Xbox 360. 5.
