4.3  How to save / load the camcorder settings to / from a PC  

It is possible to save the current settings on all four cameras from MCU-100P to a PC for later use. 

Also any previously saved MCU-100P settings stored on a PC can also be loaded back to the MCU-

100P unit. This can be handy if multiple users have access to the equipment and you need a quick 

way to get back to your preferred settings. 

Use the following procedure to save the current camera settings set by the MCU-100P unit to a PC. 

1.

 

Power off the MCU-100P unit.  

2.

 

Connect the MCU-100P unit to PC using a USB cable via the USB 2.0 (Mini B) interface. 

 

 

 

 

 

3.

 

Set the five 

switches on the MCU-100P unit to their 

middle position.  

4.

 

Press and hold in both the CAM 1 & MU-1 buttons at same time and then power on the 

MCU-100P unit.  

5.

 

The seven segments LED Display will show “

cU--

”, and the PC will detect the MCU-100P 

unit as an external storage device named “

MCU-100P_MUx

”.  

6.

 

Open the “

MCU-100P_MUx

” folder on the PC and copy “

mu_param.bin

” file to desired PC 

hard drive location.  

7.

 

Once complete unplug the USB cable and reboot the MCU-100P unit.  

To load previously saved settings on a PC to MCU-100P, r

epeat steps

 1~5 of the above procedure 

and then continue with the following steps. 

6.

 

Open the “

MCU-100P_MUx

” file folder on PC and delete the “

mu_param.bin

” file.  

7.

 

Copy the previously saved “

mu_param.bin

” file from the PC hard drive location to the 

MCU-100P_MUx

” folder.  

Note:

 Do not worry if the previously saved 

xxxxxxxxx.bin 

file has been renamed on the PC. 

The MCU-100P unit will automatically amend the file name back to “

mu_param.bin

” after 

a reboot.  

8.

 

Once the copy process is complete unplug the USB cable and reboot the MCU-100P unit.
