software has been installed.
Adding Files to the GPDR40 (Mass Storage)
Via PC USB port
To transfer or copy files to/from a personal computer:
z Locate the USB cable from the supplied accessories and plug
the large plug of the cable into an available USB socket on the
PC. Try to connect directly to the PC and avoid connecting via
passive USB hubs as this may cause transfer problems.
z Plug the smaller plug into the USB socket on the unit.
z Switch ON the unit.
Windows should now identify the unit and initialise the relevant
mass storage driver for it. A mode switch screen appears on
the GPDR40. Highlight “MASS STORAGE” and press
6
/ OK.
z Double click on “My Computer” icon, a window will open and
two removable drives will be shown (one for the unit and the
other for the SD/MMC card), typically designated E: and F: if
the computer has one hard drive or partition and one CD
ROM drive.
Note for Windows 2000 users: Windows 2000 will only support
one mass storage device from a single USB port. Therefore,
only one of the drives will be shown. To fix this problem, download service pack 4 from the following website:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/downloads/servicepacks/.”
z The removable drives can be used in the same way as a
normal hard drive and any files can be dragged into the
drives to add them to the unit or the SD/MMC memory.
7
Once the required files have been copied to the removable drives,
double click on the
icon in the system toolbar to stop or eject,
Windows will report when the drives have been safely stopped.
Remove the USB cable from the USB sockets on the unit and
computer.

Important notice:
“If a file copied to the unit using the mass storage drag and
dropmethod does not playback or cannot be viewed, delete the
file from the unit and then convert it to a compatible format using
the file convertor. This tool will convert the file to a format that the
GPDR40 can recognise (When converting, please ensure that all
the required CODECs are installed before opening the file
converter tool. If the video file plays on the PC then the CODEC is
most likely already installed. If the file does not play then the
CODEC will have to be installed.) If the file still does not playback
after converting it with the file converter, it will not be possible to
play/view the file on the GPDR40.
