6.1 USB HOST Connection

The ARCHOS allows you to connect a USB external device, so that you can transfer files or play content directly on the ARCHOS.

These devices can be Mass Storage Class (MSC) devices, such as digital cameras, card readers, or external hard drives, or digital cameras using the Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP).

Check your manufacturer’s information to find out whether your device is an MSC or PTP device. Non Mass Storage Class devices such as printers, Ethernet adapters, mice, keyboards, etc. are not supported.

1.Once the ARCHOS is on, connect the external USB device (with a standard USB cable if needed) into the USB A port.

2.Turn on the external USB device if needed (check the documentation of your ex- ternal USB device).

3.A double browser window will appear on the TV screen: the external USB device will appear in the left panel, and your ARCHOS device’s hard drive in the right panel.*

*You can also access the contents of your USB device from the “Video”,

“Music” and “Photo” browsers.

4.You can then play files directly from the USB device. To transfer files to/from your

USB device using the double browser, see Copying and Moving Files and Folders.
