The DVR Station allows you to connect a USB external device to your ARCHOS, so that you can trans-
fer les or play content directly on the ARCHOS.
These devices can be Mass Storage Class (MSC) or PTP devices.
Check your manufacturer’s information to nd out whether your device is an MSC or PTP device. Non
Mass Storage Class devices such as printers, Ethernet adapters, mice, keyboards, etc. are not supported.

Insert the ARCHOS Gen 5 device into the DVR Station.
Once the ARCHOS is on, connect the external USB device (with a standard USB cable
if needed) into the DVR Station (usb a port).
Turn on the external USB device if needed (check the documentation of your external
USB device).
A double browser window will appear on the ARCHOS: the external USB device will
appear in the left panel, and your ARCHOS device’s hard drive in the right panel.
You can then play les directly on the ARCHOS or transfer them onto it.
