charged,

(when device is switched on), unplug the charger after 3 hours,

SPIRIT will indicate

when the battery is fully charged.

1.3. Running the SPIRIT while plugged in

If operating the Player indoors and power is available, it is advisable to operate the

Player through the Universal AC Adapter/Charger. This will preserve battery life,

especially during power intensive operations such as downloading files from your PC

to the Player.

1.4. Reset

using the reset switch. Before using resetting sequence, check that, the unit has a

1.6. Installation of Spirit Device on your computer

Power on the SPIRIT and connect the SPIRIT to your PC using the USB cable

provided. Launch Windows Explorer on the PC, and click on the “My Computer”

folder. Windows will automatically recognise the SPIRIT as a removable storage

device available to Windows. The SPIRIT will be allocated a drive letter (as with the

existing storage devices on your PC) and will be listed among the other storage

devices. You can treat this drive like any other system drive. Windows supports the

full range of file handling functions including: drag and drop, copy, paste and delete.

You can organize the drive space by creating folders and sub folders, as you require.

For Win98 users, please install the device driver from the CD. Insert CD. DO NOT

CONNECT THE DEVICE TO THE COMPUTER YET

Start >>>>>>Control Panel >>>>>>Add Hardware

Choose installation location and point to the Driver Folder on the CD-ROM

Windows will install the software.

Connect device and reboot computer. ‘My Com puter’ will assign a letter for the new

drive.

1.6.1. WAV, MP3 and WMA formats

The SPIRIT supports WAV files, for low bit rate voice recording, by the device and two

compressed music file formats: MP3 and WMA. The SPIRIT will play files in either file

format automatically. MP3 and WMA extens ions denote that these are compressed

files. The WAV format typically denotes the extension on a CD or hard drive in

UNCOMPRESSED format.

The SPIRIT is shipped with a few tracks loaded on the HDD. Your choice of format

and compression standard will affect the qua lity of the music and the corresponding

file size.

NOTE: WAV, MP3 and WMA are Music files.

1.6.2. Managing Music with Windows MediaTM Player

With Windows Media

Player installed on your PC, you can either build a library of

music files on your PC by “ripping” your audio CD collection or by transferring already

encoded MP3 or WMA files from your PC directly. (If you do not have Windows Media

Player installed on your PC, load the copy supplied with the SPIRIT CD. Follow the

installation instructions, which will automatically be presented when the CD is installed

in the drive.)

To load music from the PC, connect the SPIRIT to the PC using the USB cable

provided. The USB socket is on the bottom edge of the SPIRIT. Select the Windows

Media

Application on your PC and follow the A pplication instructions for the transfer

of files.

1.6.3. Managing Music with Windows Explorer Software

You can organize the drive space by creating folders and sub folders, as you require.

Drag and drop files from your desktop to the folder of your choice on the device. You

can also use standard windows copy commands to transfer these files. Wait until all

files are transferred – this can take a few seconds after the copying window has

closed.

Now remove the USB cable from the SPIRIT using Window’s ‘Safely Remove

Hardware’ feature. The Player will restart automatically. If the device is not

disconnected properly, it may freeze and require a reset. The PLAYER will now index

the new files you have downloaded; during this process, the SPIRIT will display

progress information on the display. This process may take several minutes, after

which the top-level menu will be displayed and you can now access your music.

You can also transfer data files this way, and use your SPIRIT as backup, or standard

file storage. The data files are not visible in the SPIRIT display. All management of

these files must be done with the player connected to a computer.

1.6.4. Creating New Folders and Sub-folders on the SPIRIT from your PC

New folders and sub folders can be created on the SPIRIT from your PC. This is

done from the Windows operating system, with the player connected as in 1.5.

Launch the Windows Explorer and select the SPIRIT drive, by selecting “FILE | NEW

> FOLDER”. A new folder can be created at any point in the directory structure.

Refer to the Windows Help for further information about file management.

1.6.5. Copying and Moving Data Files to the SPIRIT from your PC

Files can be copied and moved to the SPIRIT from your PC. This is done over USB

connection using the Windows operating system with the player connected as in 1.5

above. Launch the Windows Explorer and select the SPIRIT drive, select the file or

folder to be moved and drag and drop to the new location. A “Move” will be the

default action if the source and destination are on the same drive, a “Copy” will be

the default operation if the source is on a different drive from the destination. Refer to

the Windows Help for further information about file management.

Data files will not be listed with the music files in the index but should be organised

and managed with the SPIRIT attached to the PC.

1.6.6. Deleting Files from the SPIRIT using Windows

Files can be deleted from the SPIRIT during PC connected session. This is done from

the Windows operating system with the player connected over USB as in 1.5. Launch

the Windows Explorer and select the SPIRIT drive. Select the file you wish to delete

and press the delete key. Multiple files can be selected by holding down the control

key while selecting files to delete.
