Description of key operation
The keys can be operated in four different ways: with a short, long, or normal press, or they can be held down. In this handbook, a "short press" is to be assumed unless stated otherwise.
Short press: This will take effect shortly after you press the key. Long press: This will take effect when you press the key and hold it for 1
to 2 seconds. Normal pr e ss : This will only take effect when you release the key. Press and Hold: This will take effect and repeat at certain intervals while the
key is held down, such as for fast forward or rewind.
Lock function (Hold)
You can block all buttons of your MP3 player to prevent accidental operation. To do so, simply move the key lock switch in the direction of the USB connector (HOLD). During operation, "Hold" is shown in the LCD display. Unlock the keys by moving the switch back.

3.3 Battery status
The service life of the battery is approximately 8 hours. The service life of the battery may vary depending on the various operating conditions of the MP3 player and installed firmware.
The charge state of the battery is indicated by various symbols to enable you to estimate how long the player will operate:
full 66% 33% empty
Please replace the battery if an empty battery symbol is displayed. Use rechargeable batteries with at least 800 mAh or alkaline batteries.
3.4 Installing the driver
When using Windows 98SE, you must first install the correspondding driver before connecting the MP3 player to your computer. You can find this driver on our website at http://www.odys.de. This is not required when using Windows ME, 2000, XP and Vista.
Connect the MP3 player to your PC.
The driver installation starts. When using Windows ME, 2000, XP and
Vista, the PC recognizes a new hardware device (mass storage device) and automatically installs the corresponding driver.
If an error occurs during installation, remove the Device, restart the
operating system and reconnect it to the PC.

3.5 Transferring files MP3 player - PC
Connect the MP3 player to your PC.
Open the Windows Explorer or double-click My Computer. Select folders or files to be transferred and drag them to the removable
data storage symbol of the MP3 player (download to root directory). It is possible to create different folders for the classification of your file types in the player memory beforehand and then to save the relevant files to them.
Once the transmission is complete, click the MP3 player symbol and
check whether the files were completely copied.
Following the same procedure, you can also copy files from the MP3
player to the PC (upload).
Formatting the Flash Memory
Using the PC operating system:
Open Windows Explorer and right click on the player’s removable data storage symbol. Then click on the Format option in the context menu.
You can also use your MP3 player to transport all types of files.
Never disconnect your MP3 player during a data transfer or formatting.
PLease note that the device's main directory can only control a maximun of 150 entries (Folders and Files). If you wish to save more titels then you will have to create sub-folders. In these sub­folders you can save as many files as you deem necessary.

The device creates automatically a folder using the file format "DIR". Voice recordings which were created by the device using the file format WAV can be found in this folder. Please do not use this folder to save MP3 or WMA files.
3.6 DRM Protected Files
What is a DRM file?
DRM stands for “Digital Rights Management”. WMA files that are legally downloaded from the internet are generally protected by DRM. These files contain a license that directs how the file may be used. All licenses are controlled by the Windows Media® Player (version 9.0 and higher). In order to play DRM protected files, the Windows Media® Player must be used.
Which Windows Media® Player Version is installed on my computer?
Open the Windows Media® Player installed on your computer, click the question mark located on the menu bar and select “INFO”. The Windows Media® Player version will appear in the next window. Windows Media® Player is free and can be downloaded from the internet. We recommend using Windows Media® Player Version 10.0.
Using DRM Protected Files
Open the Windows Media® Player and click on the synchronization button. Browse through your computer and select a DRM protected file.
Please note that only WAV files using IMADPCM coding can be used when in the voice playback mode. Please use the Music Playback mode to playback MP2 and WMA files.
