AFU or copy to USB

Pearl Mini has USB 3.0 ports that you can use to copy recordings from the SD card to external USB flash
drives or hard drives. Use this to conveniently provide speakers with a copy of their presentation before they
leave the presentation venue.

The USB storage device must be formatted with one of the following file systems:

 

l

FAT16

 

l

FAT32

 

l

XFS

 

l

EXT2

 

l

EXT3

 

l

EXT4

 

l

NTFS

 

 

There are several different ways you can transfer recordings to a USB storage device:

 

l

AFU to a USB storage device

 

l

Do a one-time copy/move all recordings to USB storage device

 

l

Manually copy recordings to USB storage device

We recommend you only connect one USB device to Pearl Mini at a time. Only one copy or move
to USB operation is permitted at a time, even though the UI may appear to let you start a second
one. Please wait until the first is complete before starting a new operation.

AFU to a USB storage device

You can transfer recordings to a USB storage device automatically when you select an external USB device as
the AFU protocol transfer type using the Admin panel.

USB ports are available on both the back and the front panels of Pearl Mini.
