Changing, Adding, and Ejecting USB Storage Devices
To access the
Device Menu
from any screen, press
Shift+Power
. From this
menu, you can choose to Change or Eject Devices.
Since USB is hot-pluggable, you can connect (but not disconnect) a USB
device at any time, regardless of whether the unit is powered On or not
and regardless of what mode the unit is in.
- To Change devices:
1. Select
Change device
from the
Device Menu
.
2. Select the new device you wish to switch to using the
Navigation key-
pad
or
Jog Wheel
.
3. Perform any necessary catalogging or verification (as found in
Section
Two:
Selecting Devices & Database Creation)
- To Eject devices:
1. Select
Eject device
from the
Device Menu
.
2. Select the new device you wish to Eject using the
Navigation keypad
or
Jog Wheel
. Press Enter to eject the device.
3. If the device you have ejected is being used by both sides of the HDC-
1000, the unit will warn you by displaying “The device is also attached
to other side!” This simply means that if you intend to remove the device
from the HDC-1000, you must eject both sides before unplugging it.
4. When the display reads “The device can be safely removed,” you may
disconnect the USB device.
5. If you are using a USB CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, you must use the
Eject procedure in order to open the CD/DVD tray.
If the Eject procedure is not followed, there is risk of corrupting any files
that are open when the device is disconnected.
