to provide power. If no power is provided, the ND2730
shows the “Connect power!” message and waits for
external power to be applied.

● Back up data is stored in the "NEXTOPS " folder. This
folder is created automatically. The ND2730
generates a new folder for each memory card copy.
The name of the folder is determined by the shooting
date.
● For example, 20081112.000 means the last photo
taken on November 12, 2008. (If you copy multiple
items on a single day, the last three digits will be
changed to indicate the download sequence – “000,
001,002, 003, etc.) The date code comes from the
digital cameras If the date setting on the digital
camera is incorrect, the folder name of the ND2730
will also be incorrect.
● If a copying failure occurs, the copy is stored on
your computer as a TMP folder. The TMP folder
contains the same file names, but the data may be
abnormal. You may delete the TMP folder (see
chapter 14).
