Cautions to Note When Using the File-sharing Features
Before you turn off the PR-50's power or stop file sharing, quit the connection to the
computer.
No password is set for file sharing. This means you must never use the file-sharing
feature while connected to the Internet or in other network environments in which
someone may gain unauthorized access to your files.
Never operate or make any adjustments with the PR-50 while files are being copied
from a computer. Also be sure to stop playback of any clips.

Enter the addresses for "IP Address," "Subnet Mask," and "Gateway."
Ask the network administrator for these addresses.

8.
At the Selector window, start the Presenter.
9.
Click the "Edit Mode" button to change to the Edit mode.
10.
Go to the bottom right of the window and click the "Start Disk Sharing" button.
The Edit mode ends and the disk-sharing feature is activated.
11.
Connect the PR-50 to the network through the computer.
Connect using the host name you set on the PR-50. For more-detailed instructions about making these
connections, refer to the documentation for your computer.
If you're using Mac OS X, you can use "smb://unit's_host_name/IMPORT/" to access the unit.
The "IMPORT" folder becomes the shared folder for video. Also, the "MASK" folder becomes the
shared folder for masks.
12.
Copy material from the computer to the PR-50.
Copy video material to the "IMPORT" folder and image files to use as masks to the "MASK" folder.
You can import video material copied to the "IMPORT" folder from the "Import Material" dialog box
(p. 30). For more information on the formats that you can import, refer to page 81.
You can take video material copied to the "MASK" folder and use it directly in the Play Mode. For
more information, refer to "Importing Masks Created on a Computer" (p. 83).
When you import material from the "IMPORT" folder at the "Import Material" screen, that material
is automatically deleted from the "IMPORT" folder. All other files are also deleted when the power
to the PR-50 is turned on.
Clicking "Cancel" while you're making these settings returns you to the "System Preferences" screen.
Clicking "Revert" returns the settings to their original state.
Never try to copy any file larger than 4 GB.
The unit may have trouble operating properly if the hard disk becomes filled up with copied material.
If this occurs, first shut down the unit, then turn the power on again. (This deletes the files in the
IMPORT folder.)
We assume no responsibility for the deletion of any masks already stored in the "MASK" folder.
13.
Click the "Stop Sharing" button.
The disk-sharing feature stops and the Editor screen returns.
Never click the "Stop Sharing" button while sending files. Doing so may corrupt or destroy the file
being sent.
