2.5 Downloading data over FireWire

The easiest way to download data over FireWire is to connect a
suitable disk to the FireWire port of the CD24 and power-cycle the

unit.

If you have ordered a CD24 with the powered FireWire option, you can
attach the disk directly to the CD24 with no additional connections.

Otherwise, you will need to connect the disk to a power source
through the supplied adapter.

When the digitiser restarts, it will automatically detect the disk and

flush all new data to it.

If you do not want to restart the digitiser, you can also flush data to
disk manually:

1. Open the digitiser's console. To do this using Güralp Systems'

Scream! software, right-click on the digitiser's icon (once it
appears) and select Terminal.... If you are using a Güralp EAM,
issue the command minicom -n port-number.

2. Connect a suitable disk to the FireWire port of the CD24.

Provide power for the disk if necessary.
