USB Mass Storage

This function is only available for firmware version V1.5 (and later versions).

The UC-7420/7410 supports PNP (plug-n-play), and hot pluggability for connecting USB mass storage devices. UC-7420/7410 has a built-in auto mount utility that eases the mount procedure. The first connected USB mass storage device will be mounted automatically by mount to /mnt/sda, and the second device will be mounted automatically to /mnt/sdb. UC-7420/7410 will be un-mounted automatically with umount when the device is disconnected.

ATTENTION

Remember to type the #sync command before you disconnect the USB mass storage device. If you don’t issue the command, you may lose some data.

Remember to exit the /mnt/sda or /mnt/sdb directory when you disconnect the USB mass storage device. If you stay in /mnt/sda or /mnt/sda, the auto un-mount process will fail. If that happens, type #umount /mnt/sda to un-mount the USB device manually.

UC-7420/7410 only supports certain types of flash disk USB Mass Storage device. Some the USB flash disks and hard disks may not be compatible with UC-7420/7410. Check compatibility issues before you purchase a USB device to connect to UC-7420/7410.

CF Mass Storage

The UC-7420/7410 supports PNP and hot pluggability for connecting a CF mass storage device. UC-7420/7410 has a built-in auto mount utility that eases the mount procedure. The CF mass storage device will be mounted automatically by the mount command to /mnt/hda. UC-7420/7410 will be un-mounted automatically by umount when you disconnect it.
