Copying files in the root directory: Root Mode
Root directory: the top directory in a file system. The root directory is provided by the
operating system and has a special name. For example, in DOS systems the root directory is
called \.
1. To copy only the file(s) in the root directory from the source device to the target device,
move the Full/Root switch on the USB Anywhere into the “Root” position.
2. Connect your source device. The source LED will pulse with a blue light until the device is
recognized. Once the device is recognised, the LED will then show a solid blue light. If the
source LED turns red, the attached device is not a suitable source device.
3. Before connecting your target device, make sure the target device has sufficient unused
memory space for the files you are about to transfer. It is possible for the source device
to have a higher storage capacity than the target device. However, the files that are to be
transferred must not exceed the unused memory space on the target device.
4. Connect your target device. The target LED will pulse with a blue light until the device is
recognized. Once the device is recognised, the LED will then light up with a solid blue light.
If the target LED turns red, the attached device is not a suitable target device or does not
have enough memory space available for the files you are about to transfer.
5. Press the Copy button to transfer data from the source device to the target device. The
source and target LED will start pulsing for the duration of the data transfer.
