USB Cloning
ENGLISH
• An Installer can quickly set up and clone multiple Signage sets at a property. These cloned Signages will all
have the same Master Signage Setup: Public Display Mode Installation Menu settings, User A/V settings. This
newer procedure signicantly decreases the installation time that would be necessary if the standard RS-232C
method were used instead.
1 Overview USB Cloning Procedure
2 Data To Be Cloned
: Signage has the capability to support cloning internal Signage data with an external clone device called
“USB Cloning”, in order to copy Signage data accurately and quickly. The clone internal functions use
a slightly dierent internal processes for the two types of signage. However, the UI of cloning feature
remains the same in both. Regarding the demands over the current cloning feature for quicker cloning,
better portability and etc., we would like to announce the cloning process via USB port, named as USB
Cloning. USB cloning process is divided into 2 main processes. One is writing the previously saved Signage
data into the Signage, and one another is reading of current Signage data into USB memory card. To avoid
any confusion due to the words, it is clearly specied as “Import Clone File” and “Export Clone File” in the
whole process.
: The data cloned are the same data cloned by previous USB Cloning. Details are explained in the following:
-Signage data includes :
A. Installer Menu settings
B. Main menu settings (Audio, Picture etc)
