4.3 Display file information
4.4 Delete a file or folder
4.5 Create a new folder
4.6 Use the Text Input mode
4.7 Read Text files

Battery Level Directory level Mode Indicator Subfolder (directory) icon Text file icon Playlist file icon MP3 Music file icon lev 02 Browser Wles Burden Read_me_first Wes' jazz playlist Through the Rain Brave New World Currently selected file

Notice the vertical scroll bar on the left of the screen. This indicates that there are more files at this level. Use the Up and Down buttons to see the files.

**Although the Ondio will store any type of file, only the files with extensions.mp3,.m3u,.txt and folders will be displayed on the screen.

4.1 How to Navigate the file structure

Notice carefully the directory level lev 02 on the top of the screen in the example above. This tells you at what depth you are in the file system. When you turn on the Ondio, you are at the root level, level 0. From there, each time you enter a folder (Click Right button to enter a folder), you go down one level. This indicator gives you a sense of how deep in the file system hierarchy you are. To go back up one level, you will click on the left button 📋. If, for example, you are at level 02, then you should click on the Left button two times to return to the root level of the file system.

4.2 How to Recognize file types

The Browser mode allows you to view all your MP3 files. The Ondio will store any type of file (think of it as a 128MB hard drive). However, when you go into the Browser Mode, you will only see the files with the extensions.mp3 (music),.m3u (Playlist), and.txt (text file). As shown in the screen above, each of these recognized file types has its specific icon type.

4.3 How to Display file information

If you would like to view information about an MP3 file, you must first play it. While it is playing or is paused, you can hold down the Mode button which will bring you to a Question screen. Scroll down using the Down button to the option File info. When you execute this option, you will see information about the file such as bit rate, sample resolution, size, and file name.

4.4 How to Delete a file or folder

While in the browser mode, navigate to the file you want to delete. Once highlighted, hold down on the Mode button 📋 until the question screen appears. You can then scroll down (using the down button) to the delete option. Click on the right button to make the delete happen. You will then be asked to validate your response.

4.5 How to Create a new folder

Go to the folder (directory) where you would like to create a new folder. Hold down the Mode button 📄 until the questions screen appears. You can then scroll down (using the down button) to the Make directory option. Click on the right button to select this option. You will then be sent directly to the Text input screen where you can enter a name for the newly created directory. See section 3.6 on how to enter text.

4.6 How to use the Text Input mode

vol 10 Text Old: --- New: The battle of Dea • towards a • towards z

Text Input Screen

When you create a folder or change the name of a file, you are sent to the Text input screen in order to enter your text. We highly recommend that you use your computer's file management system to rename files and create new folders. The Ondio's text entering screen can become very tedious to use if you have to enter more than one or two text items.

To enter text, you will use the Up button to scroll the alphabet towards the letter a. Using the Down button will scroll toward the end of the alphabet. After the letter z, you will go through the Upper case characters A – Z, after these, through the numbers 0-9 and then finally through special characters. By holding down on the Up or Down button, it will scroll through the alphabet faster and faster.

Click on the Right button 📋 to accept the current letter and advance one place forward. Click on the Left button 📋 as a backspace, to delete the previous letter. Hold down on the Left button to delete the entire line and start anew. To validate your text, click on the Mode button 📋. You will see a question screen asking you to accept the text you have input, or to escape from the text input mode leaving the original text unchanged. Note that if you are making a new folder and you escape from the text mode, no new folder will be created.

4.7 How to Read Text files

Wrap Text file The Ondio will read .txt files. There are two modes. Wrap and raw. This is wrap mode.

Text Reading Mode (Wrap)

In the Browser mode, the Ondio will display file names which have the.txt extension. Because of Ondio's small screen, we recommend you read.txt files from your computer. However, there are times when you'd like to be able to read a.txt document without having to connect the Ondio to your computer. Click the Right button on a highlighted.txt file to open it. The top right of the screen will display Text to indicate that you are in the text file reading screen. The top left will display the reading mode.

Raw Text file The Ondio will read .txt file: This is line 2 of the text file

Same text file in Raw mode

Hold down on the Mode button to toggle between Wrap and Raw reading modes. Reading a text file in Raw mode will not introduce the automatic wrapping that allows you to read it line after line. A text line may have 200 or more characters, and thus you must use the Left and Right buttons to shift the text display to the right and left in order to read all the words.

In Wrap mode, the Ondio will wrap the sentences around to the next line. You will then use the Up and Down buttons to scroll up and down through the text file. In this mode, the Left and Right buttons will bring you to the beginning and end of the text file respectively.

5.2 How to Play a Playlist

ew 02 Browser Wes Burden Read_me_first Wes' jazz playlist Through the Rain Brave New World

Browser showing all viewable file types

A Playlist is a file that contains a list of music tracks to play. This feature allows you to compile a list of your favorite songs and store them in a file for playback later. Playlists can support up to 999 songs and can contain songs from multiple folders. A play list is really nothing more than a text file with the list of files to be played. When you first turn on your Ondio, your current default Playlist is empty and needs to be populated with songs before you can play or save it. If you delete a song from a Playlist, you are not deleting the song, but just its entry in that particular list.

From the Main menu, go to the Browser mode (Right button) to see the files and folders on your Ondio. As shown on the left, once in the Browser mode, (Browser displayed in the top right of the screen), you will see a Playlist file such as 'Wes' jazz playlist'. Playlist files have a list icon ≡ in front of them.

Use the Up 📄 or Down 📋 button to locate the Playlist you would like to play. Once the desired Playlist file is highlighted, click on the Right button 📋 to play it. There is a setting in the Music Settings Submenu which will allow you to have the music tracks in the Playlist played in random order (shuffle).

The Playlist exists in the Ondio's internal memory first, then it is saved for later use. If you create a Playlist without saving it, it will be lost the next time you turn on the Ondio. To put a song into the Playlist, first you will highlight it in the Browser mode. Now, hold down on the Mode button until you see the Question screen appear. The first option will be to add the song to the Playlist. Since this option is highlighted already, just click on the Right button to accept this choice. This song is now in the Playlist. Navigate through your folders, and add in this same way, all the songs you would like for the current Playlist.

When you're done adding all your songs to the Playlist, you should save it. To do so, go to the Settings mode (Main menu then Left button). Once in the Settings mode, you will scroll down (Down button) to the option Open Playlist. Click on the Right button to open it. You will now see the Ondio's Playlist. In the Playlist screen you can do all your Playlist manipulations. To delete a song from the Playlist, click on the Left button.

vol 4 Record Source: 95.4 mhz RADIO_02.mp3

Recording Screen

To record from the radio, you will use the Instant-Record function. When you hear a song that you want to record, you don't want to have to fiddle with the recording level, bit rate, or other parameters. Thus, the Ondio will use the preset parameters to record with (you can change these in the Record Settings Submenu).

While listening to the radio, you will double-click on the power button. This will make the Ondio go instantly to the RECORD mode and start recording. The file name will be pre-determined as Radio_xx where xx is the next consecutive number of the radio recordings. The recording gain level will be preset according to the default value in the recording settings submenu. If you would like to pause the recording, click once on the Power button. The top right of the screen will display Pause. If you would like to recommence your recording, click once again on the power button. The mode indicator will then display Record once more. When you want to stop your recording, double-click once more. You will then return to the regular FM Radio mode that you were in.

ATTENTION: In order to avoid any radio frequency interference, the Ondio purposely does not display the elapsed time nor the recording levels. You can be assured however that it is recording via the Record indicated on the display.

There are two ways to record from the built-in microphone. You can either use the Instant-Record feature which transfers you to the Record mode with settings already made and the recording started or via the RECORD main menu. If you want to be able to control file name, bit, and sample rates before you begin your voice recording, you should use the traditional recording method via the Record mode.

Instant-Record

vol 4 Record Source: Mic Voice_04.mp3

Recording Screen

While at the Main menu or in the Browser mode, you can start an Instant Recording by double-clicking on the Power button. You will be sent to the recording mode with all the settings preset and the recording started. The file name will be preset to Voice_xx where xx is the next incremental number voice recording. The source will, of course, be set to Microphone. The preset record level will be the value that was set in RECORD submenu settings in the Settings mode. While recording, click once on the Power button to pause. You will see that the state indicator displays Pause. Click on Power again to recommence your recording. Double-click on the power button to stop your recording. You will then be sent back to the BROWSER mode where you will be able to see the MP3 voice file.

Using the Mode button 📋, click it until you return to the Ondio main menu screen. Click now on the Down button to indicate that you want to go into the Record mode. The screen to your left will be displayed. You will notice that recording Source will be either Mic or Line-in. Hold down now on the Mode button for three seconds. You will go to a question screen.

vol 9 Question You would like to change the... 1. file name 2. input source 3. sample rate

Question Screen

The Ondio will now give you a list of items to choose from. Use the Down button 📋 to highlight item 2, input source, then click on Right 🔒 in order to change the input source. You will see two input sources. Scroll to Microphone and click on the right button to select it. You will then be sent back to the Recording screen. You can also do the same thing to change the name of the file that will be recorded, the sample rate, or the bit rate. Typically you will find it much quicker to use the Instant-Record method to record your voice. That method, however, is less versatile.

Now that your recording level and parameters are all set, double-click on the Power button 📋 to start the recording. If you need to pause, click once on the Mode button 🔒. To resume from the pause, click on the Right button 🔒. To stop the recording, click the Mode button once to pause the recording, and then click the Mode button a second time to definitively stop it. The recording is now saved as an MP3 file. During a voice recording, the Power button also can control the Pause and Stop as in the case of Instant-Recording.

Recording Screen

To record from your Hi-fi unit, you can use the included audio cable*. Plug one end into the Ondio's Line-in jack. This is the jack on the top of the Ondio on the right. Plug the other end of the cable into the Line-out jacks (Left and Right) from your Hi-fi unit, Cassette deck, CD player, or VCR. Next, return to the Main menu (by clicking on the Mode button) and then select the Recorder mode by clicking on the down button.

You will see a screen as that on the left. Before recording, check for a good recording level by playing the sound to be recorded from the Hi-fi unit while watching the left and right record level indicators on the screen. Use the Left and Right buttons to decrease and increase the recording sensitivity. The bars should go up to the very end of the scale without causing the final bar to flash a ! mark. If you see the ! mark, this means you are overdriving the input and you need to reduce the sensitivity a little bit.

vol 9 Question You would like to change the... 1. file name 2. input source 3. sample rate

Question Screen

To change the default file name Rec xx where xx is the next consecutive recording number, you can press and hold down on the mode button. This will go to the QUESTION screen and ask you if you would like to change the file name. You can also press and hold the Mode button to change the bit rate and sample rate of the recording.

Now that your recording level and parameters are all set, double-click on the Power button 📋 to start the recording. If you need to pause, click once on the Mode button 🔒. To recommence from the pause, click on the Right button 🔒. To stop the recording, click the Mode button once to pause the recording, and then click the Mode button a second time to definitively stop it. The recording is now saved as an MP3 file.

*The included audio cable connects to your Hi-fi unit via two (left and right) RCA type connectors. If you would like to record from a device which has only a headphone jack, such as a portable radio or boombox, you will need to purchase an audio cable which have the male stereo 3.5mm jacks on BOTH ends.

These settings allow you to control the quality of the recording. There are default bit rate settings in the Record Submenu in SETTINGS. Go to the main menu by clicking on the Mode button 📋. Click on the left button to go to the SETTINGS mode. Once there, scroll down with the down button 🔒 to highlight the Record submenu. Click the Right button to enter into this submenu. Here, you will find all the recording presets. See also Appendix B for technical details.

There are two default recording bit rate settings. Rec bit rate for the Radio and Line-in recordings, and mic bit rate for microphone recordings. Scroll to the menu item and click the Left and Right buttons to increase or decrease the setting. You can now click on the mode button to return to the Settings menu, and then on Mode again to go back to the Main menu. Remember, when making a recording the traditional way via the Recorder Mode (as opposed to Instant-Recording), you can always adjust the recording bit rate and sampling resolution at that time (see the instructions on how to record).

The sampling resolution is changed in the same way. The higher the sampling resolution, the higher the quality of your music or voice will be. However, the MP3 file sizes will also be larger. Decreasing the sampling resolution will decrease the sound quality and the MP3 file size. The suggested settings for sampling resolution are 44.1 Khz for the Radio/Line-in recordings and 22 Khz for microphone recordings.

6.5 How to make Incremental Recordings

If you are recording multiple music tracks, for example, from your audio cassette where there are short periods of silence between each song, you can use the Incremental Recording feature. Attention: This feature only works in the traditional recording mode, not in Instant-Recording. While you are recording, wait until you hear the beginning of the silence between songs. At this moment, click on the right button 🏠. This will stop and close off the first recording, and immediately start a new recording. The name of the new recording will be the previous name with the suffix b. Then for the next incremental recording it will be suffixed with the letter c. For example, after making a few incremental recordings, you might have MP3 file names of, Rec_07a, Rec_07b, and Rec_07c. Note also, that when the Ondio switches from the end of one incremental recording to the beginning of another, it will say Please Wait. Don't worry, the recording is taking place during this message.

6.6 How to use the Retro-Record Feature

The Retro-Record feature allows you to record from the radio without missing the beginning of a song. For example, you hear a song that you like and would like to record it. You double-click on the Power button which starts an Instant Recording. With the Retro-Record parameter set to On in the SETTINGS menu, your Instant Recording actually starts 30 seconds BEFORE you double-clicked, thus capturing the beginning of the song that you missed. Later, after you stop your recording (double-click on the Power button again), you will be able to Edit that song to neatly trim away the beginning and end of your recording.

Select song to edit

vo 9 Question You would like to... 2. go to settings 3. display file info 4. edit radio recording

Select edit recording

To edit your song, you must first play it. Once it is playing, hold down on the Mode button 📄. If the selected song was recorded from the radio AND the Retro-Record setting was on when it was made AND the song has not already been edited, only then will there be the option in the QUESTION screen to Edit the song. You will have to use the Down button to scroll downward to see it since it will be the last option on the list.

Now comes the tricky part. Once you select the item 'Edit', you will go to the EDIT mode and you will hear your recording start to play. As shown in the image to the left, you are to make your Cut-in (where you really want the song to start) and your Cut-out points (where you want the song to end). The Left and Right buttons have two functions so be careful. By holding down on either button, you will fast forward or fast reverse through the file. When you let go of the button, the music will play normally. When you have found the exact spot you would like the Cut-in to happen, give a simple click on the left button. Then, let the song continue playing (or fast forward toward the end) and then when you arrive at the point

where you want the Cut-out (song end), give a simple click on the right button.

Now that you have made your edit, you can continue to use the Left and Right buttons to listen to the entire song to verify that the edit points are as you want them to be. To finish, click on the Mode button. The Ondio will ask you if you want to save the edit or not. If you accept your edit, it is definitive and you cannot re-edit the music track again. If you do not accept your edit, you will be sent back to the Browser mode with your recording untouched. It can be edited at another time.

7.2 How to Expand the Ondio with a Multimedia Card

Your Ondio has a built-in capacity of 128 Megabytes (Flash memory). If you would like to expand that capacity, you can purchase a Multimedia Memory Card (MMC) which slides right into the side of the Ondio. These can usually be purchased at the same store you bought your Ondio from. These cards currently have capacities of up to 128 Megabytes of storage space (and perhaps more as manufacturers continually try to increase the storage capacity of these tiny cards).

You can insert the card into the Ondio while the Ondio is on or off. The Multimedia Memory Card (MMC) takes the place of the built-in Flash memory. This means that you either listen to and record onto the built in memory OR the expansion MMC memory. When you insert a new (and blank) Multimedia Memory Card, you will not see any of your MP3 files or folder because the Ondio will be looking only at what is on the inserted memory card. If you want to listen to your previously recorded music, voice, or radio, simply pull out the memory card and your Ondio will revert to the contents of its internal flash memory.

***NOTE***

The Ondio can only be used as an external storage device when it is connected to a computer. You cannot use the buttons on the front to play music from it.

8.1 Connecting Ondio to a PC

The Ondio connects to your computer via the USB 1.1 standard. Thus either a 1.1 or 2.0 USB port on your computer will work. Start up your computer and make sure it has completely booted up the Windows operating system. Connect the included USB cable to your computer's USB port (larger end of cable) and then the other side (mini USB connector) to the Ondio's mini USB port (right side). You should connect the cable to the Ondio while it is on. For Windows ME, 2000, and XP, no special software driver needs to be installed. These operating systems will recognize the Ondio as a mass storage device and simply assign a new drive letter, (e: for example) to the Ondio. See the next section below on how to safely disconnect the Ondio from a PC.

When you connect the Ondio to a computer running Windows 98 SE (Second Edition), it will recognize that a new USB device has been connected to the computer and start up its Add New Hardware Wizard as shown below.

Add New Hardware Wizard This wizard searches for new drivers for: Mass Storage Device A device driver is a software program that makes a hardware device work. < Back Next > Cancel

1. Windows will now go and copy from the CD to your hard drive, all the files it needs to make the USB connection operational. Click on Next to tell Windows to install the driver.

2. Windows will indicate when it has finished copying the drivers. Click on Finish.

3. You will be asked to restart the computer. Upon restarting your computer, it will again ask to find the correct drivers to load. Go through the exact same process again, directing Windows to the drivers on the CD-ROM. Ondio will now be seen as another drive in your file management system.

1. Safe remove icon here

2. Safe remove button

3. Safe remove message

If you are running Windows 98 SE, you can simply disconnect the USB cable from the Ondio and then use the Ondio as normal. Attention: Make sure you do not disconnect the Ondio while data is being transferred to or from it. Ondio displays the message BUSY under the USB graphic when it is transferring data.

For Windows ME, 2000, and XP, you must remove the Ondio in a special ‘safe’ manner. You will see a small card icon with a green arrow in the system tray (bottom right of screen [1]). Click on this icon and then click again on the “Remove Safely” message [2]. Wait a few seconds and a message will appear on the center of the screen [3] saying that you can remove the storage device. You can now safely unplug the Ondio’s USB cable.

Warning: Failure to safely disconnect the Ondio as explained above may cause the operating system or Ondio to freeze and/or lose data.

8.3 Use the Ondio file format

The format of the data inside the Ondio's flash memory is the same as that of a small hard drive (FAT). Using the Windows defragmenting tool will not corrupt the data on the Ondio. However, because there is only 128 megabytes of memory on the Ondio, doing this is really not necessary. If you think there may be problems with the memory, you can reformat the Ondio's Flash memory. You will, of course, lose all of your data if you do not back it up on your computer's hard drive beforehand.

8.4 Connecting Ondio to your Macintosh

The Ondio connects to your Macintosh via the USB 1.1 standard. Thus either a 1.1 or 2.0 USB port on your computer will work. Start up your computer and make sure it has completely booted up the Mac operating system. Connect the included USB cable to your computer's USB port (larger end of cable) and then the other side (mini USB connector) to the Ondio's mini USB port (right side). You should connect the cable to the Ondio while it is on. After a short wait, the Mac will automatically recognize the Ondio as a mass storage device and place an icon on your desktop representing the Ondio. You can now drag and drop files as if it were another hard drive.

Warning: Before disconnecting the Ondio from your Macintosh, drag the Ondio icon to the trash in order to unmount it from the operating system. Failure to do so could lead to unpredictable results.

9 MusicMatch™ Software

The best way to use your Ondio is by employing the included MusicMatch™ software. This software will help you to create Playlists, rename files, change ID 3 tag information (Artist, Album, Song title), and execute other useful MP3 related functions such as transforming you personal CDs into MP3 files for playing on the Ondio. Using MusicMatch™ is easier than managing and naming your files via the text input function of the Ondio. Furthermore, you can download additional MP3 tracks from MusicMatch at http://www.musicmatch.com/get_music/

Installing MusicMatch™ software on your PC or Mac is quite simple. Just slip the included CD into your CD-ROM drive and the autorun system will present you with a list of installation options. You can then choose MusicMatch™ in the language of your choice. When installing MusicMatch™, it will ask you to enter a serial number. You will find the serial number printed on the paper pouch that the CD was packaged in. If for some reason the autorun does not present the menu when you place the CD into your computer, you can run the installation via the executable program in the folder MUSICMATCH. You will see a number of languages offered.

QUESTIONS ABOUT MUSICMATCH™?
