9 CONNECTING TO EXTERNAL DEVICES
The HD
RANGER
Lite can interact with external devices, sharing information
through its interfaces. Connection types are:
Input/output data interface via mini-USB connector to USB memory or
PC.
DiSEqC, SCD/EN50494 standard (also known as SatCR) and
SCD2/EN50607 standard (also known as JESS) interface via RF
connector.
Next is described each of these interfaces and their interaction with external
devices.
9.1 Mini-USB connector
The equipment has a female mini USB port that uses a USB media specific
protocol called "On-the-Go" (OTG abbreviated). This type of communication
allows the equipment to work in two different ways depending on the device
connected to the USB port: as a server (host) or device. More often, the
HD
RANGER
Lite will work as a host when connecting a USB memory and as
device when connecting to a computer. This feature makes the equipment in a
much more versatile tool.
9.1.1 Connecting the HD
RANGER
Lite (host) to an USB memory (device)
This connection allows the user to copy files (screenshots, channel plans,
dataloggers, DiSEqC commands and others) and export/import installations from
the equipment to the USB and vice versa.
