You can work with the files saved in your eXplorist or files located on an SD card in the eXplorist (optional).
Using the personal computer, you have complete access to moving, renaming, modifying, or deleting any of
the saved files. Special care should be taken whenever working with saved files as unwanted results may
occur. It is advised that you backup any files that you plan on editing in case something unexpected happens.
When you first turn the eXplorist on while connected with the USB cable it is automatically in the File Transfer
mode using the internal memory of the eXplorist. To work with files on the SD card you need to tell the
eXplorist that you want to work from there.
1. Follow the previous instructions to connect the eXplorist to your personal computer.
2. If the USB File Transfer screen is not being displayed, follow the above instructions to select the File
Transfer mode.
3. To change from internal memory to the SD card: Press ENTER. Highlight FileTransfer and press ENTER.
Highlight Internal Memory or SD Card and press ENTER. (You may get a notification that a USB
device was disconnected. This is normal and just click the OK button.)
4. Left-click the “My Computer” icon found on the desktop. From the drop-down menu, select Explore.
5. Find the new drive in the left-hand list of folders. It will be called “Removable Disk (X:) with “X:”
being the assigned drive letter.
6. Using normal window commands, you can copy, rename, move, and delete any of the files.
7. You can also view and modify the files using any text editor. If you modify the files, you need to save
them as text only files. The following is a sample of a POI file being modified using WordPad.
