Connecting to a Computer
If a report is generated while the Fido X4 is connected to the computer via USB, the Fido X4
will briefly disconnect while the report is generated. The Fido X4 will then reconnect with the
new report available.
Reports will normally remain on the Fido X4 unless the drive is full; however, using the Fido
X4 as a permanent storage site is not recommended. For long-term storage, FLIR recom-
mends that you copy or extract reports to another storage device on the attached computer.
7.5 Digital manuals
The Fido X4 stores a digital copy of this manual and other documentation in PDF format. You
can save or copy these manuals to local storage on your computer to allow access to the doc-
umentation when the Fido X4 is not connected.
PDF reader software is likely installed on your computer. However, if you cannot open the
PDF file, you may need to contact your organization’s IT team. A common source of PDF
reader software is Adobe, the creator of the format:

Note:
For optimal display of the digital manuals, FLIR recommends you download the
latest version of your PDF reader software.
