USING USB FLASH DRIVE
It is possible to read in/output data from/to a USB flash drive.
•
When using a USB flash drive, data is stored in the root directory. You cannot read/write data from/
to subdirectories.
•
When using the ES, an MS-DOS-compatible text file can be input/output.
•
You can neither save a file under the same name as a read-only file, nor change/delete the name of
a read-only file. (However, this varies depending on the model or software you are using.)
•
For "Communication Manual" that describes details on the communication formats used for
inputting/outputting data to/from a USB flash drive, please consult with your local dealer.
•
When using the ES, you can use a USB flash drive with the capacity of up to 8GB.
