A. Driver Installation
You can use HS100 without installing the Driver in Windows
ME/2000/XP.
• How to Install the Driver in Windows 98/SE Computer :
If HS100 is connected to the Windows 98 computer, a new
hardware wizard is executed. If you find a location for the
new device driver in Windows while the wizard is executed,
insert the Installation CD in the CD ROM and designate
such location as the driver location.
B. How to confirm the Driver Installation :

indicate the correct drive and path in the "Encryption file"
menu and choose the file(s) from the "Decoding" files window.
10. Select the "Decode" option and enter the password, which

8. X-Series Utility
1) X-File Security
This Security Program is an application, which is compatible with
the HS100 and the Windows operating system. The program
allows for the user to add a level of security to their files. If you
are going to access the protected files from another computer,
then ensure that the X-File Security Program is installed on that
computer. Please refer to Program Definitions and Descriptions
for assistance.
A. Instructions for the X-File Security Program
1. Install the X-File Security Program on your computer system.
2. Connect the HS100, ensure that it shows on your desktop as
a "Local Disk" drive.
3. Start the X-File Security Program by selecting the shortcut on
your desktop.
4. Indicate the correct drive and path in the "Original files" menu
to show the file(s), which you would like to select for password
security.
5. Indicate the correct drive and path in the "Encryption files"
menu to show where you would like to save the encoded
file(s), such as the HS100.
6. Choose the file(s) from the "Original files" window, which you
would like to encode for security and select the "Encoding"
option.
7. Enter a password for the protected file(s), which can be from 1
to 8 characters (caution: ensure to remember the password(s),
as this is the only way to decode files).
8. To access encoded files, select the file to open and enter the
password which was used to encode the file.
9. To decode file(s) or remove passwords associated to file(s),

5. Choose all - this option allows the user to select all files from
the window area when encoding, decoding or deleting files.
6. Delete - this option allows the user to remove any file(s) that
have been selected, ensure to be careful as this also includes
files from your computer.
7. Refresh - this option will show the most current file information
regarding your computer system.
English

1. Original files - this menu allows the user to indicate the drive
and the file location for files, which they would like to add
password protection or a location for files they would like to
decode.
2. Encryption files - this menu allows the user to indicate the
drive and the file location for where they would like to save the
password protected files or a location for files they would like
to decode.
3. Encoding - this option will prompt the user for a password,
when entered will create a password protected file for each file
selected and shows as a "XFF" file format.
4. Decoding - this option will prompt the user for a password,
when entered will place a copy of each file selected in the
location indicated without file security.
B. Program Definitions:
• When encoding a file, the program creates a copy of the original
file and saves that password-protected file into the location indicated in the "Encryption files" window. When decoding a file, the
program creates another copy of the original file and saves the
unsecured file into the location indicated in the "Original files" window.
• If you are going to access the encoded files from another computer, ensure that the X-File Security Program is installed on that
computer. We suggest for the user to save the X-File Security
Program on the HS100, which can then be easily installed.
• Passwords are case sensitive. Ensure to remember password(s)
as you are not able to access files that have been encoded without the original password(s).
• The "Delete" option in the "Original files" window will remove all of
the selected file(s) when this option is entered (caution: ensure to
be careful as this option removes any file(s) selected including
files from your computer).
• If you have mistakenly removed files from your computer using
the "Delete" option in the "Original files" window, you can locate
the deleted files from the Windows "Recycle Bin".
• The "Delete" option in the "Decoding files" window will remove all
of the "Encoded" file(s) which have been selected when this
option is entered.
• Files, which have been encoded, for security protection will
appear as a "XFF" file format.

b. Send Mail
1) SMTP server: You use this server when you send an e-mail.
X-Mailer supports two ways to use SMTP server
and not to use SMTP server.
• Send Mail without SMTP server: It's faster and you can
send mails more easily wherever you are because X-mailer
doesn't need to use SMTP server. But it can take more time
to send mails to receivers when the receivers are many.
• Send Mail with SMTP server: It's more stable many
receivers because the mails will pass through SMTP server.
But you should input new SMTP server address whenever
internet-connected PC changes.
