Additional Notes

  • Some add-ons will not run after the system has been left running for a while. if this happens please try again after a power cycle.
  • The left-most USB port will not read USB drives when in OTG mode.
  • When external devices can’t pair to the ALU in BT Device mode, please change to BT Host mode, disconnect the device, and try again.
  • Data Manager will show a non-zero number after clean up due to non-exportable system logs.
