Preparation____________________________________
Battery operation
The dictation machine can be used for approximately 12 hours when the alkaline manganese batteries are fully charged.
•Open the battery compartment.
•Insert batteries (Micro type / AAA, 2 x 1,5 V). Make certain the polarity is correct.
•Close the battery compartment.
– Display for battery operation » 
«.
Note:
A signal will be omitted when batteries are weak. The battery symbol flashes on the upper right edge of the display. You will still be able to dictate for a few minutes until the dictation machine automatically switches off.
Rechargeable battery operation
To allow a smooth operation of the rechargeable battery* you should always switch off your dictation machine after you have finished dictations and connect it to the Digta Station* to be recharged.
–Display when operating with rechargeable batteries:
»
«.
Inserting rechargeable battery
With the Digta Station 446* you only may recharge the Akku-Pack 466* rechargeable battery* in the dictation machine.

Preparation____________________________________
Note:
The dictation machine’s operating system is “shut down” (similar to a PC) when it is turned off. There must still be sufficient power available for this purpose. If, after the dictation machine has automatically turned off, you turn it back on again without having plugged it into a power supply* (e.g. via USB cable to a PC) or without having inserted new rechargeable batteries, your saved dictations may be permanently lost.
The rechargeable battery* is charged also when the dictation machine is switched on. In this case, however, charging will take a longer time.
Direct charging of the rechargeable battery
•Switch off the dictation machine by moving the On/Off slide switch upwards to »OFF/HOLD«.
•Plug the power supply* into the mains socket.
•Connect the USB plug of the power supply* cable to the »PC/USB« socket of the dictation machine.
–After a short time the display indicates that the batteries are recharged and the green recording indicator will be blinking.
–The flat rechargeable battery* will be fully recharged after about 4 hours. The charging indicator and the recording indicator then go out.
•Pull the power supply* from the socket and the power supply* cable's USB plug from the »PC/USB« socket.
Note:
When the rechargeable battery is flat (total discharge), it may take up to two hours until the load indicator appears on the display. Please check if the dictation machine and the power supply work accurately. To do so, take out the rechargeable battery. Then connect the dictation machine with the mains supply and switch on the dication machine.
* Special extras 11
Preparation____________________________________
Charging the battery – using the Digta Station 446*
•Connect your USB plug from the power supply* cable to the »DC IN 5V« jack of the Digta Station*.
•Plug the power supply* plug to the wall outlet.
–The yellow indicator of the Digta Station* lights up.
•Switch off the dictation machine by moving the On/Off slide switch upwards to the »OFF/HOLD« position.
•With the dictation machine switched off, plug it into theDigta Station*
–Shortly afterwards, the load indicator appears on the Digta display and the LED-indicator blinks green.
The yellow indicator of the DIGTA Station flashes yellow during the loading process.
–After approx. 4 hours the flat rechargeable battery* is recharged. The charging indicators and the recording
indicator disappear. |

PREPARATION____________________________________
Notes on rechargeable battery 466
New rechargeable batteries do not reach full capacity until they have been recharged several times. For this reason the operating time for new rechargeable batteries in some rare cases is less than 3 hours.
When the rechargeable battery* is fully charged, you can use the dictation machine up to 12 hours (DSS Standard Play).
The rechargeable batteries’ charge state is shown on the dictation machine display:
–»
« Rechargeable battery* charged;
–»
« Rechargeable battery* partly discharged;
–»
« Rechargeable battery* weak;
–»
« Rechargeable battery* nearly flat.
Note:
The rechargeable battery* must always be fully charged in the dictation machine to make sure that the real charging state is displayed.
Before the rechargeable battery* is completely flat a short warning beep will sound and the rechargeable battery* symbol »
« will flash on the display. There won't be a warning signal in the recording mode. You will still be able to dictate and play-back for a few minutes before the dictation machine automatically switches off. However, we recommend either starting the charging process after the warning beep and the flashing rechargeable battery* symbol »
« or to use the power supply* to operate the dictation machine.
The dictation machine’s operating system is ”shut down” (as for a PC) when it is switched off. Sufficient power must still be available for this purpose. If, after the dictation machine has automatically switched off, you switch it back on again without plugging in the power supply* or if the rechargeable batteries have not been recharged, your saved dictations may be permanently lost.
* Special extras 13
PREPARATION____________________________________
Mains operation via USB
You can connect your dictation machine to your PC via a USB cable (included in delivery).
•Switch on your PC.
•Switch on your dictation machine and connect it to the
PC via the USB cable. A display for rechargeable battery* operation appears on the upper right edge, or the
symbol »
« for power supply* via PC flashes if the batteries are fully charged.
•If automatic PC connection is switched on, the dictation machine logs on at the PC via USB parallel operation.
Open the menu with the right selection button. Select
the symbol » 
« for dictations in PC power supply* mode with the navigation buttons and confirm with the right selection button »
«.
Now your dictation machine is supplied with power by the PC (the battery* in the device is not discharged) and you can use it for recordings and play-back like under battery operation.
Mains operation
If the dictation machine has been switched on and a power supply* is connected to the »PC/USB« socket, the power supply* will supply the dictation machine with power. The rechargeable battery* is charged.
– Display for mains operation »
«.
Please use the Digta Station* for PC operation with power supply*.
* Special extras 14
PREPARATION____________________________________
Inserting and removing replaceable memory cards
You can use memory cards (not included in delivery) instead of the internal memory.
Use Digta Cards supplied as accessories by Grundig Business Systems.
•Push the memory card into the slot with the side with the diagonal corner facing the direction shown on the back of the device.
Note:
Do not insert the card with force. Slight pressure is sufficient.
To remove the card press the memory card slightly until the snapping mechanism unlocks.
Do not remove the cards when recording is running or during data transfer from PC to PC. This can result in data loss.
If a full memory card (e.g. with over 300 dictations) is inserted into the dictation machine with factory default settings (or with a reset dictation counter), it takes up to 20 seconds to create a new dictation. This time is required for the dictation machine to search for the first free dictation number starting from dictation number 1. This time also varies depending on the manufacturer of the memory card.
If you use MultiMediaCards/SecureDigital Cards (MMC/ SD) with insufficient writing speed, »Card not supported!« will appear in the display.
Make sure that the electrical contacts on the underside of the memory card are not subjected to physical stress. The cards are not affected by dirt or moisture, but they may only be put into the dictation machine when they are clean and dry.
15
PREPARATION____________________________________
New memory cards must be formatted before any writing can be done.
It is essential that the notes in the chapter “THE MENU
– Formatting” be observed.
Formatting replaceable memory cards
Memory cards – including those which have been preformatted – must first be formatted with the dictation machine prior to initial writing.
If an error message appears after a non-formatted memory card is inserted, confirm this with the right selection button »
«.
The »Format, delete all?« display should also be acknowledged with the right selection button » 
«.
The memory card may not be formatted as a removable disk using a PC formatting function.
New memory cards may only be formatted using the “Formatting” menu function. It is essential that the notes in the “THE MENU - Formatting” chapter be observed.
We recommend reformatting the memory card on a PC once it has been overwritten several times. The memory card is defragmented during formatting. Access to the next dictations is then faster.
16

Easy Mode - Menu Mode _________________________
The Easy Mode serves for making the pure dictation functionality of the Digta 422 available for the author.
The menu functions are switched off in the Easy Mode. Instead of this, a delete button and an insert button are permanently available.
The advantages of the Easy Mode are:
-All important functions (dictating-, deleteand insert functions) are available on the buttons.
-The display is more neatly designed because only the dictation information is displayed.
-Operating errors of rarley used functions (e.g. change folder, delete the entire memory, restore counter, insert info/index) are excluded.
-All device settings (e.g. microphone sensitivity, length of display illumination) which have been set in the Menu Mode remain after switching over to the Easy Mode.
Note:
GRUNDIG Business Systems recommends to perform all settings in the Menu Mode, to activate the desired workflow functions and then switchover to the Easy Mode.
Switchover from Easy Mode - Menu Mode
The switchover from the Easy Mode to Menu Mode is achieved through switching on the Digta 422.
•To switchover between the Modes, press the „NEW“ button when switching on the Digta 422 till the initial display view appears on the display (hour glass and progress bar).
19
PIN / PUK __________________________________________
Entering the four digits PIN
Your dictation machine comes with a PIN/PUK function. The PIN (Personal Identification Number) is activated via the supplied PC software. Afterwards you have to enter your PIN each time when you switch on your dictation machine. Die PIN (personal identification number) can be activated by means of the supplied PC software in the menu item „configuration/extended...“ or contact our service hotline on:
www.grundig-gbs.com Support / Contact Info
Default settings are 0000. You may change your PIN via the menu functions described in the chapter „THE MENU
– Modifying the PIN”.
•You may confirm your entry via the navigation
buttons or you move the slide switch to »◄◄REW« (smaller figures) or to »►►FFWD« (higher figures) and confirm the figures with the recording button »
DICT«.
-Each figure you entered in will appear as a star symbol
"٭" to screen from view. Having entered the fourth figure you will access the main menu.
If the wrong PIN was entered three times you have to wait for 30 seconds to try again. However, if in three trials the wrong PIN was entered three times, the dictation machine will be locked and only may be unlocked via entering the right PUK.
20
PIN / PUK __________________________________________

buttons or you move the slide switch to »◄◄REW« (smaller figures) or to »►►FFWD« (higher figures) and confirm the figures with the recording but ton »
DICT«.
If the wrong PUK was entered three times you have to wait for 30 seconds to try again. Entries may be done as often as you like. The PUK is generated from the device's specific serial number and will be supplied to you or to your system administrator when you buy the machine.
Having entered the PUK the PIN will be reset to 0000.
Saving dictations on removable memory cards
Dictations on external, removable memory cards (Digta Card) can not be protected through the PIN/PUK function. The following display appears when changing to an external memory card:
-EXT NO PIN PROTECTION
