a) Attach the USB memory key or USB HDD to the receiver.
b) Navigate to Media Manager.
c) Select Media Information
d) Select "Format" drive by pressing the RED button.
e) The receiver will prompt you for a password. The default password is 0000
f) Enter the password and proceed.
g) Please wait for the format to complete. This can take some time and depends on the size of the USB device attached.
h) Once complete, the USB device will show as "Proprietary"
