Backpack Swapping 
With Neuros Firmware 2, “on-the-fly” backpack swapping is available. When you use the 
128 MB Neuros backpack, music you synchronize is stored on the internal flash chip on the 
player. You can now save the flash chip contents (tracks, recordings, playlists, presets, etc.) 
when you insert the player into the hard drive backpack. When the player is inserted in the 
hard drive backpack, a message will appear, asking if you wish to “Save Flash Contents to 
Hard Drive”. Clicking Yes will begin saving the flash memory contents onto the hard drive. 
When you are ready to use the smaller backpack, before you remove the player from 
the Hard Drive backpack, Go to Settings on the main menu and select “Backpack Swap”. 
Then select “Restore Flash” and “Yes”. The contents of the flash chip will be restored and 
the Neuros will shut down. When the player is reinserted in the smaller backpack, the flash 
contents will be restored and ready to play. 
 
Firmware and Software Updates 
Users can easily upgrade their Neuros Synch Manager Application and Neuros device

made the update process automatic.

1.  You must be connected to the Internet to update your Neuros Sync Manager 
application software and your Neuros device firmware. 
2.  From the Neuros Sync Manager, select Help and then select either Check for NSM 
Software Updates or Check for Neuros Firmware Updates.

to your Neuros. 
4.  Follow the PC prompts for NSM application updates and follow the Neuros display 
prompts for firmware updates.  
 
NOTE: If you have a USB 2.0 backpack, you must have Neuros FW 2 installed. Do 
not use firmware version 1.45 or lower with your USB 2 backpack.
