The SV1115IPEXT is able to emulate a virtual disk drive attached to the host via USB, and must have the optional USB cable connected to the SV1115IPEXT and the host computer to function. Depending on configuration, it will appear to the host as a floppy drive (1.44MB), an 8MB RAMdisk or a CD-ROM. The host computer does not require any special drivers or other configuration. You can transfer files to the virtual disk at any time. SV1115IPEXT will wait until the host is not using the disk, and add or remove the files. When the host computer next looks at the drive, it will notice the changes. You can read files from the virtual disk at any time, as long as the host is not actively writing to the disk. All of this happens in the background, and you may treat the virtual disk as a shared drive without restrictions.

Access to the files is performed through the web interface. The contents of the root directory are shown on the home page. You can download files as you would any file on the web (right-click and Save target as). To upload a file, click Browse, select a file, and then click Upload. Files and directories may be deleted using the Delete button situated to their right.
