Memory Transfer Using a Secure Digital Card Or USB Flash Drive with a Pathfinder Plus Only.
The Pathfinder with Plus features allows you to transfer files from the Pathfinder to a computer or computer to Pathfinder by using a Secure Digital card or a USB memory device (sometimes called a "Memory Stick", "Keychain" or "Keyfob" device).
Important Note: The maximum size for USB Flash Drives is 4GB (may need to be formatted as a FAT 32) and the maximum size for Secure Digital Cards is 2GB for Memory Transfers or playing sound files in PRC Devices. If trying to use a removeable disk larger than recommended, the device may not recognize the disk.
Secure Digital Card Transfer
1. Insert the Secure Digital card in the small slot above the Mouse Serial Port. Insert the card face-up (the side with the writing on it should be face up). Push it in until it stays securely. (Push on the end of the card again to remove the card.)
2. Select the STATUS button twice to see your System Menus.
3. Select the TRANSFER MEMORY MENU.
4. Press More Items, then change the MTI Method option to either AUTO or SD Card. If you choose SD Card and the card is securely in place, you will see a note telling you Disk Status: READY and the amount of space available on the card. Note: It may take a few seconds for the option name to change in the box after you select an up or down arrow. Select More Items again.
5. Now select the memory transfer option you want to use and follow the directions you see on the display screen.
NOTE: If you are loading vocabulary back into your device, you will see the following screen appear:
You MUST select ERASE OLD VOCABULARY BEFORE LOADING. You cannot select the Merge option because it is not functional at this time and may scramble your vocabulary.
6. You will see a message box telling you Memory Transfer Complete. Select OK.
7. Select OK again to exit the TRANSFER MEMORY MENU.
USB Transfer with a Flash Drive
1. Connect the USB memory device to the rectangular USB port on the left side of the Pathfinder case.
2. Select the STATUS button twice and open the TRANSFER MEMORY MENU.
3. Press More Items to change the MTI Method option to AUTO or USB Disk. If you selected USB Disk and the USB device is securely in place, you will see a note telling you Disk Status: READY and the amount of space available on the card. Note: It may take a few seconds for the option name to change in the box after you select an up or down arrow.
4. Select More Items again.
5. Now select the memory transfer option you want to use and follow the directions you see on the display screen.
6. You will see a message box telling you Memory Transfer Complete. Select OK.
IMPORTANT NOTE! Importing Sound (wav) Files and Saving/Loading Notebooks
You import sound files when you are in a storing menu (STORE CORE, CREATE or MODIFY ACTIVITIES/PAGES, ASSIGN KEYS, etc.). You save or load Notebooks while you are in the NOTEBOOK MENU.
After connecting your memory device, it is a good idea to go first to the MEMORY TRANSFER MENU and select either AUTO, SD Card or USB Disk. Then begin the storing process for importing sound files or go to the NOTEBOOK MENU to load or save Notebooks.
