appears in the center of the screen press OK. Once in the USB MSDC
menu you will see arrows on the bottom of your screen which means the
device is connecting to your compute. After a moment, your computer
will assign a drive letter and the film scanner will become a mass
storage device (similar to a flash drive). You then need to access that
drive on your computer and transfer all the images to your computer.
NOTE: Images cannot be captured while in the USB mode. Images can
only be stored while in the Capture Mode
.
SD CARDS
As mentioned on previously, the scanner can either save scanned images
to its internal memory or on to an SD CARD. (The Scanner does not
include an SD Card) The SD card is inserted into the slot locate on the
back of the unit. It is important to know that if your SD card has been
used already for some other use, (digital camera or files storage) it will
not be properly recognized by the scanner for the purpose of saving
scanned images. You will either have to use a new SD card or format
your existing SD card.
To format your SD card please follow the steps in the FORMATTING
section or follow the steps below.
IMPORTANT-FORMATTING YOUR SD CARD WILL ERASE ALL OF YOUR
