Dune HD Lite 53D: Connecting USB Drives

Connecting USB Drives

To connect a USB drive, ensure you are on the main screen of the player menu and connect the USB drive

to an USB port of the player. The player will recognize the USB drive, and will show an item corresponding

to the USB drive on the main screen.

When connecting a USB drive requiring signifi cant power (such as USB HDD), use an external power

supply for the USB drive. Power provided by the USB ports of the player may not be enough for correct

functioning of the USB drive.

Do not disconnect or switch off the USB drive when some write operation is in progress.

Using SD Memory Cards

To insert an SD memory card, ensure you are on the main screen of the player menu and insert the memo-

ry card into the SD card slot of the player. The player will recognize the memory card, and will show an item

corresponding to the memory card on the main screen. Some SD memory cards may not be recognized by

the player or may work incorrectly; in such a case, use other models of SD memory cards.

Do not eject the SD memory card when some write operation is in progress.

Internal 2.5” SATA HDD

You can install the 2.5’’ SATA HDD inside the player case. To install the 2.5” SATA HDD, please do the

following:

1. Power off the player.

2. Open the side cover of the case: remove two small screws at the side of the player which fasten the

cover, then pry up the cover using the small gap between the cover and the side of the player.

3. Attach the HDD to the metal plate mounted on the inner side of the player cover. Please use 4 screws

of M3 type.

4. Connect the SATA power and SATA data connectors to the HDD.

5. Put the cover with the HDD back to its place and fasten the cover to the player case with the screws.

Accessing Network Drives

To connect a network drive using SMB or NFS protocol, ensure you are on the main screen of the player menu,

press the "MENU" RC button, and choose "Create Network Folder", then fi ll the parameters of the network drive

as needed. The player will show an item corresponding to the confi gured network drive on the main screen.

To browse the list of network resources accessible via SMB or UPnP protocols, use "Network Browser"

item on the main screen of the player menu. NOTE: If some network resources are not shown by the

player, you may need to wait some minutes and then retry (or press the "MENU" RC button and choose

"Refresh" command).

Formatting HDD

To format a HDD attached to the player, select the drive item on the main screen of the player menu, press

the "INFO" RC button and choose "Format Disk" (to format the entire disk) or "Format Partition" (or to for-

mat an already existing disk partition only). The player will format the disk using "EXT2" fi lesystem. NOTE:

To use disks formatted by the player on a Windows PC, you may need to install additional software on the

PC, such as "EXT2FSD" (http://www.ext2fsd.com/).
