Attach and scan external storage devices
To attach and scan external storage devices using a USB connection:
Note: External storage devices must have media stored in unprotected MP3/WMA format.
- Power up the external storage device.
- As appropriate, use the documentation provided with your Control4 controller to attach the external hard drive using the USB port.
- Start Composer Pro and connect to a Director.
- Click Media.
- In the project tree, select the external device.
- Click Scan in the device's pane.
You can add media from the external storage device when it is connected to the controller. However, it is recommended that you connect your external drive directly to the PC where you want to copy the media. When scanning, the media appears on the device.
