Introduction

Thank you and congratulations on your purchase of the eFilm Reader-18 combination
USB reader/writer. Before you begin use of this product, please take some time to read
all instructions and warranty information.
The Reader-18 is designed to read and write to Compact Flash Cards Type I and II,
including the IBM Microdrive, SmartMedia, Secure Digital, MultiMedia Cards and
Memory Stick.  It is a convenient bridge between your PC or Mac and removable media
applications.  All media cards are accessed as removable drives.  In Windows the
Reader will appear as two separate drive icons in 

My Computer

, one for each slot, and

on a Macintosh the installed cards appear as icons on the desktop.

Driver Software Installation for Windows

®

 Windows®  XP / Windows ME

Driver installation is not necessary for the Windows XP and Windows Millenium (ME)
operating systems. When the Reader-18 is connected to the USB port, the computer will
detect the new hardware and install the required drivers automatically. The Reader-18
uses the MSD (Mass Storage Device) specification, which these operating systems
support by default, therefore additional drivers are not needed.

Windows® 2000 / 98 / 98 SE

Before connecting the device, you must install the device driver located on the accompa-
nying CD-ROM.  To avoid compatibility issues, install only the Reader-18 driver.

 

On

Windows 2000 systems, it is recommended that you install the latest service pack,
available for download at the Microsoft website.
1.

Start Windows and close any other applications during installation.

2.

Insert the Delkin Devices driver CD-ROM. If the CD does not start automatically,
double click on the CD-ROM drive in My Computer. The CD will open in a driver
installation application.

3.

Click 

eFilm Reader-18 

from the list of products on the left to open the installation

window for the Reader-18. (See Figure 1)
