the distribution list. After the program is distributed to all recipients, it will end.

NOTE:

The error information and distribution program can be confirmed on the distribution log.

8. When distribution starts, the Media Player will stop displaying the program and receive the program data. While receiving the data, the following message will be displayed.

Content Updating... Please do not power-off.

CAUTION:

•If the data is received while a program is not displayed, the message is not displayed and the screen remains black.

9. After receiving the program data, the Media Player will generate the program data.

10. Media Player will restart (it will take approx. 1 minute), and afterwards, the program will be displayed according to the schedule.

CAUTION:

• Once distribution is conducted, the old programs in the SD Memory Card are erased.

• To distribute a 100 MB program to one Media Player,

1) it takes approx. 1 minute to distribute the authoring software, and 2) 1 minute to generate the program data on the Media Player side after distribution.

*The time differs depending on the performance of the PC and the program details. *After 2), it takes approx. 1 minute for the Media Player to restart.

• Do not switch off the power while the data is being distributed or while the program data is being generated.

• While the Media Player is generating the program data, if you distribute the content from Authoring Software to (the procedures of steps 9. and 10. above), a

distribution error will occur. Distribute after the Media Player is restarted.

About distributing the difference of the program data

For programs that are redistributed via LAN in order to reduce time, only the newly added movies, still images, and audio files in the program are distributed.

Program Type

Program to be newly distributed Program to be re-distributed Note 1)

Note 1) Redistribution means a program with the same name was previously distributed to the Media Player. Note 2) The message data and schedule file are always distributed. Note 3) After distribution, Media Player generates new program from new files and existing files. Unnecessary old files and old programs are deleted.

All files registered in the program Distribute only the movie, still image, and audio files that were added. Note 2)

Distribution file

Maximum program data capacity

For the maximum program data capacity of one Media Player, refer to the table below. If an insufficient SD card memory capacity error (Error code 441) is displayed during distribution, reduce the program data or increase the SD

Memory Card capacity.

Distribution method

USB memory

LAN

Note 1) The program data capacity is the total of capacity for each program data.

The capacity of one program data is the total capacity of the movie, still image, and audio data registered.

Ex) When the program distributed to one Media Player registers program 1 (still image 1 and movie 1) and program 2 (still image 2 and movie 1), the program data capacity

will be the total capacity for still image 1 + movie 1 + still image 2 + movie 1. Note 2) After distribution, the SD card occupied area can be confirmed in the “Memory Card” items of the OSD. Note 3) Depending on the structure of the program, the maximum capacity may increase.

Within 90% of the SD Memory card capacity Note 1), Note 2)

As a guideline, it should be less than 45% of the SD Memory card capacity. Note 3), Note 2)

Maximum program data capacity

Ex)

In the case of 2 Gbytes SD card, up to 1.8 Gbytes.

In the case of a 2 Gbytes SD card, up to 0.9 Gbytes as a guideline.

Maximum Play Time for movies

In the case of the enclosed Memory card (2 Gbytes), it would be as follows. *The Play Time will differ depending on the SD Memory card capacity, and the VIDEO and AUDIO bit rate. Does not include still images and

messages.

SD Memory card capacity 2Gbytes

Remarks

1920 x 1080 MPEG2 1920 x 1080 WMV9 720 x 480 MPEG2

The approximate time can be calculated using the following formula.

Play Time (Sec.) = (SD Memory card capacity (Gbyte) x 0.9) x 1024 (Mb) x 1024 (kb) x 8-bit / ((VIDEO bit rate (Mbps) x 1024 (kb)) + AUDIO bit rate (kbps))

Ex) SD Memory card: 2 Gbytes, VIDEO bit rate: 10 Mbps, AUDIO bit rate: 128 kbps (2G x 0.9 x 1024 x 1024 x 8) / (10 x 1024 + 128) = 25 min.
