HMP100 User Guide v2.1

Push mode:
Files are pushed to the HMP100 using a WebDAV server. For
example, the HMD uses the push mode to publish an Hyper Media Project to a
HMP100 unit.
USB drive:
Files are stored on a external USB drive. The HMP100 displays the
files of the drive currently plugged into the device.
Client/Server mode:
The HMP100 accesses files from a remote HTTP server.
The internal storage will be used as a cache. Configuring the client mode is
explained in
Use network servers
.
Pull mode:
Files are copied periodically from a remote server to the local storage
of the HMP100.
If the Push and Client modes are the simpler publishing mechanisms they might not fit to
all network architecture needs. In particular, when network security constraints are
introduced, it may be necessary to request the HMP100 units to retrieve content or
publish logs at specific timings. In this case the Pull mode must be used.
