To remotely transfer files from the clipboard

lowing will be displayed:
Click the

Removable Disk
) and copy the files to the
required location on the host computer.

Highlight the required files or folders (up to a maximum of 2GB) that you wish to transfer to the host computer and click the
Open
button. The new disk drive should appear on the host a few seconds later.
Note: The Use Entire Folder button provides a quick way to select a whole folder while you are viewing its contents.
