Connecting an external storage device
The Niagara 4100 has one USB port on the front panel and one on the back panel. You can connect
almost any standard USB memory device to one or both of these ports. You can then export any
audiovisual files you may have created on Niagara 4100’s local storage drive. The local storage drive is
drive D when you use the
Save to File setting from the web interface.
When you insert a USB storage device in one of the USB ports on the Niagara 4100, the appliance
automatically detects the removable storage device, and assigns a drive letter to the device. This device
can capture files directly or you can use the Niagara 4100 Export Files function on the front panel menu.
