Basic function
Go to Power Down State
- Power Down State : Spindle motor is stopped and LCD bright is low.
- Side effect : CD loading state is saved.
- (2531) Down the Jog-Dial and hold for 3 seconds.
- (2541) Press the 1 button and hold for 3 seconds.
Selecting a file =
- (2531) Navigate files by Jog-Dial Up/Down. Select(Mount) a file by pressing Jog-Dial.
- (2541) Navigate files by Up/Down (2/8) button. Select(Mount) a file by pressing 5 or 6 (instantly save loading state).
Initialize
- Two sorts of the firmware are NTFS version and FAT32/exFAT version.
- NTFS firmware version is shipped.
- If you want FAT32 or exFAT Partition, download and update the NTFS Firmware Updater.
- Follow the next steps
- Assemble the HDD or SSD with iODD
- Connect the iODD to PC
- Initialize the drive with MBR
- Format the first partition with NTFS. (if the firmware is FAT then format with FAT32 or exFAT)
- At FAT32 there is 4G byte file size limitation. please expert may use FAT32.
- Make _ISO folder in root folder. (not sensitive)
- Create or Copy *.ISO *.VHD *.RMD *.IMA or sub folder tree to _ISO folder
- Do safely remove the iODD in OS. ( Very Important to NTFS)
- If Power Down mode is active then release and reconnect the USB cable.
- If not, then #Go to Power Down State
- and if Plug Out ... message is out, release and reconnect the USB cable.
- you will see sequentially iodd 25*1 and a file name in root folder.
- If it is not like the above, follow the next steps
- Release the USB cable.
- Replace the HDD from iODD.
- Initialize the HDD with GPT
- Go to #Initialize(1, the first step) and retry (MBR -> GPT -> MBR).
Using Virtual USB Optical Drive (DVD-ROM or Blu-ray ROM)
- Copy your ISO files to _ISO folder or sub folder.
- Do Safely Remove in your OS. (necessary in NTFS )
- If Power Down mode is not active , then #Go to Power Down State
- If Plug Out ... message is out, release the iODD.
- Connect iODD to the PC to boot and power on the PC.
- (Optional) Make iODD or USB CD-ROM the first in the priority of BOOT sequence in BIOS.
- (Not required if an ISO has been selected) Select a ISO file by #Selecting a file
- If Firmware version is 1558 or higher then loading status is automatically saves. if not, you must save it manually by #Go to Power Down State
- If PC don't find booting device (iODD), then Press Ctrl-Alt-Del to reboot.
Troubleshooting
- Confirm the ISO file whether it is bootable.
- If your PC is old or does not provide multi LUN, please select CD-MODE (or ODD-MODE) in Menu.
- In order to confirm whether the ISO file is not good for booting, try to test it with the validated PC.
- Although it is bootable ISO file, it may not boot with USB DVD-ROM. test if it is same result with USB DVD-ROM.
- If It can boot in USB DVD-ROM and can not boot in iODD, please use USB Y-CABLE for adding external power.
- If your laptop has own internal DVD-ROM and iODD does not boot, please disable internal DVD-ROM at booting device list on BIOS settings or remove it.
Using Virtual USB fixed disk drive (Virtual Hard Disk)
- Only fixed VHD file is supported. (Not dynamic VHD nor VHDx files)
- Make VHD files directly by VHD Tool++. (VHD Tool++ can make a file without fragment)
- Select VHD file (#Selecting a file) and iODD will be rebooted with CD-MODE and is recognized as USB disk drive (Virtually).
- If you want DUAL-MODE or to change Write Protect option, rename the VHD file. Refer to VHD Tool++
- Max 4 Virtual Drive is supported at the same time ( Successive selection within 3 seconds)
- Create a VHD file with using VHD Tool++ at _ISO folder
- If successful, Do safely remove the iODD in OS. ( Very Important to NTFS)
- If Power Down mode is not active, then #Go to Power Down State
- If Plug Out ... message appear, release the iODD.
- Connect iODD to your PC and power on the PC.
- (Optional) Make iODD or USB CD-ROM the first in the priority of BOOT sequence in BIOS.
- (Not required if a VHD has been selected) Select a VHD file #Selecting a file.
- If Firmware version is 1558 or higher then loading status is automatically saves. if not, #Go to Power Down State
- If PC don't find booting device (iODD) then Press Ctrl-Alt-Del to reboot.
Using Virtual USB Removable Flash Drive (Virtual USB Flash Drive)
- Almost the same as the above method (Using VHD) only if the file name extension is modified by RMD.
Using Virtual USB Floppy Drive (Virtual FDD)
- This method is not supported on all computers.
- Uncompressed floppy image IMA, IMG, BIF, VFD is supported.
- IMG, BIF, VFD image file extension must be renamed to IMA.
- Almost the same as the above method (Using VHD)
