The USB stick should not be constantly plugged in and unplugged, but should ideally remain permanently connected to the PC to which the model railway is connected. Using a short USB cable for the stick is highly recommended. | |||
Processing the data on a separate "office PC" without a connected model railway is also possible without a USB stick. | |||
