CONNECT WITH A PC
124
All System 5000™ units come bundled
with a USB data cable. Using this cable,
the System 5000
™
can act as an external
hard drive to a connected computer,
allowing files to be directly transferred
between the two systems. Log files, system
configurations, and firmware updates
could all be transferred using this method.
To enable this mode on the System 5000
™
,
first attach the provided USB data cable
to the USB device port (USB-B) on the
System 5000
™
and then to a USB port
on a computer. The following screen will
be displayed, noting that scanning will
be disabled while the System 5000
™
is
operating as an external USB device.
Acting as an External USB Hard Drive
Pressing the Yes button will stop scanning on the System 5000
™
and mount the unit as an
external hard drive on the connected computer. The first time this occurs, a quick installation
will take place to allow proper connectivity.
If the above screen is not displayed, verify the Direct PC Connect USB Device option is disabled,
then disconnect and reconnect the USB cable. The USB device port can only function in one of
these modes at a time.
Once all proper connections have been set
up, the screen to the right will appear. The
System 5000
™
will now be accessible as
though it were an external hard drive and
can be managed through a file manager
or explorer window on the computer. Files
can be copied to and from the System
5000
™
’s internal memory as desired.
When complete, the USB cable can either
be disconnected or the Force Disconnect
button on the screen can be pressed to
end the connection.
