Section 11: Changing, Adding, and Ejecting USB Storage Devices
To access the
Device Menu
from any screen, press
Shift+Power
. From this
menu, you can choose to Change or Eject Devices.
Since USB is hot-swappable, you can connect (but not disconnect) a USB
device at any time, regardless of whether the unit is powered On or not
and regardless of what mode the unit is in.
- To Change devices:
1. Select
Change device
from the
Device Menu
.
2. Select the new device you wish to switch to using the
Navigation key-
pad
or
Jog Wheel
.
3. Perform any necessary cataloguing or verification (as found in
Section
Two:
Selecting Devices & Database Creation)
- To Eject devices:
1. Select
Eject device
from the
Device Menu
.
2. Select the new device you wish to Eject using the
Navigation keypad
or
Jog Wheel
. Press Enter to eject the device.
3. If the device you have ejected is being used by both of the HDTT-5000’s
(if you have a MASTER/SLAVE setup), the MASTER unit will warn you by
displaying “The device is also attached to other side!” This simply means
that if you intend to remove the device from the HDTT-5000, you must eject
both sides before unplugging it.
4. When the display reads “The device can be safely removed,” you may
disconnect the USB device.
5. If you are using a USB CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, you must use the
Eject procedure in order to open the CD/DVD tray.
If the Eject procedure is not followed, there is risk of corrupting any files
that are open when the device is disconnected.
