Reference 3: Use USB data drive to configure SAM-MZ
In the event it is not possible to connect your SAM-MZ to your network, you can use a USB data drive instead. To prevent
possible data loss, Sedao suggest using a small capacity cleaned USB stick. 4 GB is usually sufficient, depending on the
media you wish to transfer.
1.
Use ‘3Zone Instant Messages’ to configure your text, banner adverts and media.
2.
Insert the USB Data drive into a USB port on your computer and if necessary wait for Windows to install the
drivers.
3.
Click ‘File’ > ‘Publish all to flash card’
CAUTION: All previous content on the USB data drive will be permanently erased.
4.
Select the drive letter of your USB data drive. Click OK.
5.
Wait for the activity LED of the USB data drive to stop flashing
6.
Eject the USB data drive following the instructions supplied with the device
7.
Plug the USB data drive into one of the USB ports on the player. There are ports on the back panel and two ports
on the front panel under a flap.
8.
The playback will continue whilst your configuration is loaded. This may take a few moments.
9.
When completed a message will be displayed “Please remove Flash Stick”. Remove the USB data drive from the
player.
10.
After a few moments, playback will resume using your new media, text and adverts.
