ant with USB 2.0 and the FAT32 file system
and can handle 1000 folders with a maxi-
mum of 254 subfolders/files in every folder.
The top level, which can handle up to 1000
subfolders/files, is an exception to this.
NOTE
When using a longer model USB memory
stick the use of a USB adapter cable is rec-
ommended. This is to avoid mechanical
wear to the USB input and the connected
USB memory stick.
