The Master Caddy Docking Station is a sophisticated device
supporting two different data interfaces: USB 2 and USB 3. Note
that when using the Master Caddy Docking Station you may need
to connect an additional USB cable to the 5v power input. This is
because when it has to power a disk drive and its interface
electronics, the Docking Station may consume more power than
is available from a single USB port. We supply you with a USB to
5v Power Supply socket for this purpose .

If you have used a FAT32 formatted disk in the Shogun this will have
a folder structure Scene, Shot, Take. This will mean you either transfer
all the folders or utilize the Windows Search or MACs automate
program to transfer just the .mov les. There are instructions on this
in our knowledge base; visit www.atomos.com/support for more info.
