USB Thumb Drive Mode

This mode exposes either your SD card or configured images over USB.

📝 Note:

Pico 1 and 2 both use USB 1.1

SD card

Plug in the BlueSCSI to a computer via USB. By default the SD card will show up as a thumb drive.

To disable this behavior such as when you wish to power the device via a computer add this to your bluescsi.ini file:

[SCSI]
EnableUSBMassStorage=false

Images

If you would like all the currently configured images to be presented instead of the SD card you can set this in the bluescsi.ini file:

[SCSI]
USBMassStoragePresentImages=true

Interactive Console

By connecting to your BlueSCSI via a terminal like CoolTerm, TerraTerm, or Putty and typing h you will see a help menu with commands you can run on the BlueSCSI.

Available commands:
  r - Reboot
  m - Reboot into mass storage mode
  b - Reboot into uf2 bootloader
  d - Toggle debug logging
  h - Show this help message
