Important Notes on USB Drives to Ensure Successful Algorithm Upload:

The USB Drive needs to be formatted as a FAT32 filesystem in order to work. Please note that the 'exFAT' filesystem is not compatible with the charger USB Host Port. 

  • USB sticks that are 32GB and larger will be formatted as exFAT on Windows by default. You can format 32GB and larger USB drives as FAT32 through Windows Commands.
  • USB sticks in a macOS if formatted with a different default format than FAT32. You can format your USB Drive to FAT32 in MacOS.
  • It's preferable to use brand name USB drives. They are built to industry standards which should prevent any issues while programming.
  • For uploading algorithms, make sure the "CHARGER" folder from the algorithm file is the top-level folder on the USB drive.
