Troubleshooting

Reader not recognized by the computer

Ensure the USB-C cable is firmly connected to both the reader and the computer. Try a different USB-C port on your computer. Verify that your operating system is up to date. Ensure you are using a CFexpress Type B card, as other card types will not be recognized.

Slow transfer speeds

Confirm that your computer's USB-C port supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) or higher. Check the performance specifications of your CFexpress Type B card; the card's write speed can be a bottleneck. Close other applications that may be consuming system resources.

Card not reading or ejecting properly

Safely eject the reader from your computer using the operating system's function. Remove the CFexpress card. Reinsert the card firmly into the reader. Restart your computer and try again. Ensure the card is not physically damaged.

LED indicator not functioning

While the LED is a helpful indicator, its absence of function typically does not affect data transfer. If it's a concern, try reconnecting the reader. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This reader is designed for plug-and-play functionality. Simply connect the integrated USB Type-C cable to a USB-C port on your computer or compatible device. No external power supply or drivers are required for basic operation on most modern operating systems.

Compatibility:

  • Memory Cards: CFexpress Type B cards ONLY.

  • Operating Systems: Windows and macOS operating systems.

Care:

  • Keep the reader clean and dry. Avoid exposure to liquids or extreme temperatures.
  • When not in use, store the reader in a safe place, perhaps in its original packaging or a protective case, to prevent damage.
  • Ensure the built-in cable is not bent at sharp angles repeatedly, as this can stress the connection.
  • To eject the card safely, always use the 'Safely Remove Hardware' or 'Eject' option within your operating system before physically disconnecting the reader.
