BrailleNote mPower USB Mass Storage Device driver

The USB Mass Storage Device driver has been updated so that the 
BrailleNote mPower now recognises many more devices, and 
recognises them faster. Devices now supported include:

- Sony Storage Media USB Device 512MB
- Imation iCON USB Device 512MB 
- SanDisk Titanium Cruzer 512MB 
- Apple Video iPod 60GB 
- and many more.

This update applies to all BrailleNote mPower models running 
KeySoft Version 6.2 and upwards.

Installation of  USB Mass Storage Device driver on the mPower

This package will be incorporated into Keysoft 8.0.To allow these 
USB devices to be used on existing units, HumanWare has released 
a driver installation package. There are two parts to the 
package:

1) A file called installer.exe that allows new driver files to be 
installed.

2) The packaged driver (in this case called "USB mass 
storage.exe").

The first part of the package is the installer file which only 
needs to be run once - so if you install further drivers, you 
don't have to run installer.exe again. Don't worry if you 
accidentally run it again, it won't cause any problems.

The second part contains the driver.When you run USB mass 
storage.exe, the files are copied to your Flash Disk so you won't 
lose them if you perform a 4-5-6 or service reset, or let the 
unit run out of battery power. 

Installation Instructions:

1.Download the two files, installer.exe and USB mass storage.exe, 
from http://www.humanware.com/Resources/drivers.asp.

If downloading on the BrailleNote or VoiceNote, place the files 
in the root directory of the Flash Disk. If you're downloading 
the files using a PC, it may be simpler to copy the files to 
removable media, for example an SD or CF card or USB Flash drive, 
and then to put this in your unit and run them from that drive. 
Where the instructions below refer to the Flash Disk, instead use 
the particular drive with the two files on it.

2.Run installer.exe by proceeding as follows:

a. From the Main Menu, select "Utilities", by pressing U.

b. From the Utilities Menu, select "Application Program", by 
pressing A. KeySoft displays "Run program from which drive? Press 
Enter for Flash Disk".

c. Select the Flash Disk, by pressing Enter. KeySoft displays 
"Directory name? press Enter for /".

d. Select the root directory, by pressing Enter. KeySoft displays 
"Program name?"

e. Review the List of Programs by pressing SPACE repeatedly until 
you get to "Installer". Select Installer, by pressing Enter. 
KeySoft displays "Command line?"

f. Press Enter.

g. Follow the given instructions to start the installation.  You 
will be returned to the Utilities Menu while the installation 
progresses.

h. Once KeySoft tells you that the installation is complete, 
press Enter.

3. In a similar way, run "USB mass storage.exe" as follows:

a. From the Utilities Menu, select "Application Program", by 
pressing A. KeySoft displays "Run program from which drive?"

b. Select the Flash Disk, by pressing Enter. KeySoft displays 
"Directory name? press Enter for /".

c. Select the root, by pressing Enter.

d. Review the List of Programs by pressing SPACE repeatedly until 
you get to "USB Mass Storage".

e. Select "USB Mass Storage" by pressing Enter. KeySoft displays 
"Command Line?"

f. Press Enter.

g. Follow the given instructions to start the installation.  You 
will be returned to the Utilities Menu while the installation 
progresses.

h. Once KeySoft tells you that the installation is complete, 
press Reset and wait for the Main Menu to be displayed.

i. The files, installer.exe and USB mass storage.exe are no 
longer required.  You can now delete them from the root directory 
of your Flash Disk.

If you find any USB devices that don't work with the new driver, 
please contact Customer Support.
