6.4.2 USB storage
The USB storage has to be formatted in the FAT32 file format. You could connect USB flash
drives and external hard drive up to a maximal supply current of 500 mA at BLUEPIRAT2 and
800 mA at BLUEPIRAT2 5E. External power supplies are needed only when the external HDD
has a higher power consumption..
Note:
MAGNA Telemotive GmbH recommends the testing of every external storage before us-
ing it in a measurement. We suggest that especially USB devices with USB 3.0 are some-
times not recognized by the system.
