Operation

Get a power supply

There are two ways to get power supplied for the device: Use 2 x AA batteries or from any USB port power supply (5V DC adapter, USB from computer, etc), by an USB cable (come with device in package) as below, if the DC adapter doesn’t come with, you can use any USB port 5V DC adapter in your hand, 500mA to 1000mA is ok. There is an AA/USB switch on the top of the device, please put it toh itton the right place according to the way of power supply. (E.g., switch to AA if you use 2 x AA batteries, or switch to a DC adapter)

There are two wrong ways of power supply.

1. Use an AA battery, but switch to “USB”; in this way, both cassette and recording/ playback won’t work. Please switch to “AA” to get working.
2. Use a DC adapter, but switch to “AA”; in this way, the cassette won’t work, but the recording/playback can work, and the indicator will keep on. Please switch to “USB” mode if you want the device to get to work. Once the power supply is ok, you will see the green indicator is on.

Plug in a USB Flash

Use a USB flash which has enough storage space (about 1MB for 1 1-minute music recording), plug it into the device. Plug directly into the USB port of the device using AA batteries. Plug the female port of the USB cable (see chart 2) into a DC adapter. You can also use a USB card reader a r or A SUSB-HAhA USBrive as storage (Note: some readers or USB drives may have problems when using).

You can use an earphone or a speaker plug to the “AUX” to listen to music when playing or recording music. There are 4 buttons on the top of the device:

Once you press the play button, the cassette starts to wworkYouuu can see the wheel running through the small window. You can set the volume to a level using the like-by-use switch. You may hear the music playing now. Let’s start the next step — recording (converting).

Problems in Auto mode

1. If there is a long pause in a song, the Cassette to MP3 Converter may take it as tw songs, and save 2 files for it.
2. If the space between two songs is too short, which the Cassette to MP3 Converter can not detect, it will take them as one song, and save the two songs in one file. When you meet this situation, you can use the Audacity software to find (find the link following to re-power (the unplug AA battery or USB power supply, then re-plug) the device if you unplug the USB flash during recording, otherwise recording and battery are nonot working.
