if the HDD built-in USB mass
storage device or CF or SD
memory card is connected by
using a USB adaptor. Use a
USB or flash memory type
storage device.
. Take caution to avoid static
electricity discharge when

systems cannot be recognized.
. According to the type and
capacity of the USB storage
device and the type of the stored
file, the time it takes to recognise
the files may differ. This is not a
problem with the product in this
case, so please wait for the files
to be processed.

devices may not be recognised
due to compatibility problems,
and connections with a memory
reader or a USB hub are not
