Quick Index
Create a unit-specific file directly to the unit
Create a unit-specific file directly on the unit by either printing from an application software or by
dragging and dropping the source file.
¨"Creating Unit-Specific Files" on page 31
Increased security management
Unit-specific files can be encrypted with a password by using a security folder.
¨"Unit Security Setting" on page 26
SV-Manager is a Windows application software that manages the contents of the
unit.
The SV-Manager converts the source file, i.e. Word, Excel, PDF, etc., into a format
that can be browsed by the unit and creates a file specific to this unit. The unit-
specific files created by this application are registered and managed by this unit and
in the SV-Manager library (specified folder in the computer's hard drive).
The following explains the main functions of the SV-Manager using simple
illustrations. Refer to the corresponding pages.
The unit-specific files can only be managed by SV-Manager.

Backup or replace unit-specific files
You can backup and withdraw the unit-specific file when needed by registering the file into the
SV-Manager library. This feature is convenient when using multiple units.
¨"Managing Folders/Files" on page 49
Move unit-specific files to other computers
Although unit-specific files can be managed using the SV-Manager alone, the files can be moved
to other computers, i.e. backup, etc. Use the BVD Export function to export files into file formats
that can be copied and moved using the Windows file operation. Exported files can be imported
to SV-Manager using BVD Import.
