collection parameters during collection process.
U Disk Data Download
Receiver file management is stored by USB drive. It can be
used upon inserting and download by dragging directly
without download programs. It can only download static data
and unable to write or read the receiver.
The receiver can download USB drive data with Y-type data
cable, one end is connected to computer USB and the other
end is connected to eight-core socket on bottom of receiver.
After connection, “static” disk and SD card will appear in
computer. After opening the disk, it can copy the collected
static file.
