Selecting Desired Images From Connect Station and Saving Them to a Memory Card and an External Hard Disk (Connect Station CS100)

Solution

The function to copy images is for transferring images to a computer or other devices. Even if you copy images to a card and insert the card into the camera/ camcorder, the camera/camcorder cannot display those images.
IMPORTANT
  • When copying to a card, use an SDXC card or CF card. An SD card or SDHC card cannot be used for copying images with Connect Station.
  • Use a card or external hard disk formatted with exFAT.
  • The card or external hard disk may be formatted. Do not use a card or external hard disk storing images or data that you do not want to delete.
  • Use a self-powered external hard disk with a capacity within 2 TB.
  • An external hard disk for copying images cannot be used for backup.
  • If there is a DCIM folder in a destination, the destination cannot be selected. Use a computer or other devices to delete the DCIM folder.
  • Even if you perform [Delete multiple images], protected images will not be deleted.
  • When images are copied to a card or external hard disk from Connect Station, you cannot import them again to Connect Station from that card or external hard disk.
  • If a card or external hard disk formatted with a file system other than exFAT is used, a screen for initializing the card or external hard disk appears.
  • Update the Connect Station firmware to the latest version.
NOTE
  • [Copy multiple images] is not available when a card is not inserted in Connect Station or when an external hard disk is not connected to it.
  • If you perform [Copy multiple images] for images of 64 GB in total, it takes approx. 3 hours to complete the copying. However, depending on the operation status of Connect Station and the conditions (size, number, etc.) of the images to be copied, it may take 3 hours or longer to complete the copying.
  • To use an SDXC card or CF card that has been formatted with Connect Station for shooting, format the card using the camera/camcorder.
