Connecting FotoChute to a Camera or other USB Device

Connecting your FotoChute to a supported USB Device, such as a digital camera, flash disk, or memory card reader, is very easy to do. The FotoChute portable drive operates as a battery-powered USB Host, which means it gets its power from its internal battery. This is why it is important to keep the battery charged, and to turn on battery power (Power Switch set to ON) when connecting to a camera or other device.

1.Locate the Power Switch on the side of your FotoChute and slide it to the ON position. The display will show the Main Menu (see below).

2.Next plug the camera or device into the USB A-Jack on the side panel of FotoChute. Your camera may require the use of a USB cable, and may need to be powered on, as directed in your camera’s instructions.
