Appendix E - Shared Folders and the USB Port
There are several restrictions on using the AirStation’s USB port:
• When using two-byte characters (such as Japanese), keep folder and le names within 80
characters. You may not be able to copy a folder or a le whose name length is more than 80
characters.
• You cannot set attributes (hidden or read-only) for folders or les on the AirStation.
• When using access restrictions, you can register up to 16 users for the AirStation.
• Please note that you are not allowed to use any of the following words as a user or group name:
adm, administrator, all, bin, daemon, disk, ftp, guest, halt, hdusers, kmen, lp, mail, man, news,
nobody, nogroup, none, operator, root, shadow, shutdown, sshd, sync, sys, ttyusers, utmp, uucp,
www.
• Please note that you are not allowed to use any of the following words as a shared folder name:
global, homes, printers, bittorrent, disk1_pt1, disk1_pt2, disk1_pt3, disk1_pt4, disk2_pt1, disk2_
pt2, disk2_pt3, disk2_pt4, disk3_pt1, disk3_pt2, disk3_pt3, disk3_pt4, disk4_pt1, disk4_pt2, disk4_
pt3, disk4_pt4.
• If a le created on a Macintosh contains any of the following characters, it will not be displayed
correctly under Windows OS. Also, you cannot copy or properly display a le when connecting via
SMB from Mac OS X if it contains any of these characters:
? [ ] / \ = + < > ; : ” , | *
• Cancelling or aborting a le copy may leave the le incomplete, and you may no longer be able
to delete the incomplete le. This can also happen during a power outage or if the LAN cable is
suddenly disconnected. If it happens, restart the AirStation, delete the le, and try copying the le
again.
• Use the same username and password for the AirStation as the user’s Windows login. If they
are dierent, the user may not be able to access shared folders with access restrictions on the
AirStation.
• Date and time stamps stored on the USB hard drive may be updated by the OS accessing the
AirStation. File creation or access dates may not be maintained.
• If you view the size of a hard drives on the browser, it shows a bigger value than when you see it in
Windows’ drive properties. This is because the browser shows the size of the drive in gigabytes but
Windows shows it in gibibytes.

- 12 -
Appendix E Technical Detail of the USB port
• If you have logged in using a “guest” account from Windows 7, Vista, XP or 2000, access restrictions
may not work properly. A (dierent) guest account already exists on the AirStation.
• If you access a shared folder from a Macintosh computer, additional Mac OS X information les
may be automatically generated. Do not delete these les from a Windows computer. Otherwise,
you may no longer be able to access folders from a Macintosh.
• Device types that can be connected to the AirStation’s USB connector are USB hard drives, USB
memory sticks, or USB card readers. Card readers with 5 or more slots are not supported. USB
devices such as a digital cameras, CD/DVD drives, USB hubs, mice, or keyboards are not supported.
•Encrypted USB hard drives are not supported.
• Only one single drive may be connected to the AirStation’s USB port at a time. Drives
manufactured by other companies besides Bualo Technology are not supported.
• If your hard drive has an auto power mode switch, move the switch to [manual] or [on]. Leaving
the switch set to [auto] may result in unpredictable behavior.
• Up to 4 partitions can be recognized on a USB hard drive.
• Available le systems for USB hard drives are FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, and XFS.

Appendix F - Regulatory Compliance Information
Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment o
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dierent from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution:
Any changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
For operation within 5.15 ~ 5.25GHz frequency range, it is restricted to indoor environment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Important Note - FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm
between the radiator & your body.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
The availability of some specic channels and/or operational frequency bands are country
dependent and are rmware programmed at the factory to match the intended destination. The
rmware setting is not accessible by the end user.
WZR-600DHP with PCB Dipole antenna and max. antenna gain is 3.13 dBi in 2.4G and 3.04 dBi in 5G.
