Using A Pc Card; Procedure For Using Flash Memory Cards - Canon VB101 User Manual

Using a PC Card

The VB101 has 2 card slots, and you can store Web page data, etc. by inserting a flash memory card into
one of these slots.

Procedure for Using Flash Memory Cards

Insert the flash memory card
1
into the VB101.
You can insert the card into either
slot. But if flash memory cards are
inserted in both slots, you cannot use both cards at the same time. Preparation is
complete when the LED on the front of the VB101 changes from green to orange.
Create the directories.
2
Create directories named "htdocs" and "logs", for Web page data (hereafter referred to
as content) and log data respectively, on the flash memory card. You can create the
directories using ftp commands or by inserting the flash memory card into a notebook
PC etc and using file operations.
Save the content.
3
You can save the content to the flash memory card using either file operations on a
notebook PC etc or remotely using FTP. When a flash memory card is inserted
correctly, it is mounted in the VB101 file system as a directory named "/card". The
content data is stored as files in the /card/htdocs directory (file names made up of eight
alphanumeric characters followed by a three-character extension). Data can also be
stored in the flash memory built into the VB101. However, due to the limited available
space (550 kilobytes), only the minimum required amount of data can be stored.
