Small HD 702 Bright Monitor and SD Card Issue

[jmitchelreed]

Hey everyone,

I've just purchased a SmallHD 702 Bright monitor and I'm very happy with it.

However, it doesn't seem to be seeing any of my SD Cards - I've formatted them all to FAT32 and they've all been under 16GB (I've tried about 5 SD cards at this point). None of them work. It sees when the SD card is inserted, because I can see "SD" under the LUTs page, but it doesn't see anything on the card - same when I tried to upgrade the firmware.

Is there a folder structure that I need to be using so it can see my LUTs?

Hoping someone on here can help out.

Thanks in advance!

Please list what your folder tree is like for the card.

I tried multiple folder structures, one sub folder, no sub folder, two sub folders. I have seen some people organize their Luts into all kinds of sub folder organization and it shows up on the monitor.

UPDATE: Another strange thing I didn't mention in my original post: I tried to update the firmware - to potentially kick the issue out - but the monitor won't even see the .bin folder on my SD card for the firmware update from Small HD's site.

Thanks a lot for your reply.

I was just looking at the update procedure on small's site and it looks pretty much the same as it does for my older DP Pro 7: 16GB(or smaller card), formatted FAT, .bin folder is at the top of the card(not inside a folder or subfolder)... But I did notice it say to insert the SD card BEFORE turning on the power to the 500 or 700 series monitors. Maybe that could be the hang-up...?
