Using an SD memory card

You can use an SD card in your DMX-50 for recording* and playing back DAB digital
radio or playing MP2/MP3 files recorded elsewhere.

SD cards are readily available from PURE and other electronics retailers. As a rough
guide – a 64 MB card will give you around an hour of recording time from a 128 kbps
broadcast data rate.

There is an ever increasing range of brands, capacities and quality of SD cards
available. We have tested DMX-50 with the most popular cards but cannot guarantee
all cards will work. Check www.pure.com/support for any known issues.

Note DMX-50 records files to SD cards in MP2 format. You may need to use a
computer to convert these files to a different format if you wish to use them in
another device that uses SD cards. Check www.pure.com/support for information on
software you can use to convert files.

Inserting and removing a card

To insert an SD memory card in your DMX-50 push the card label side up into
the slot on the front panel with the gold pins towards the rear of the unit until
it clicks.

To remove a card push the card in slightly and it will pop out so you can
remove it.

It is not recommended that you remove a card when the SD access light is lit.

Recording DAB radio

You can record DAB radio* to SD card. The amount you can record depends
on the size of your card and the quality of the audio being broadcast.

1. Tune to the DAB radio station you want to record from.

2. Press the RECORD button to start recording. You see the record

icon ( ) flashing on the screen.

3. Press the RECORD button again to stop recording. You see a message

giving the time, date and filename that the recording has been saved
under. The filename is made up of the month, date and time. e.g.
10141020.mp2 means that the recording was made on October the
14th, starting at 10:20 am. The recording also stores the station and
multiplex name. DAB recordings are saved in a special TRACKS folder on
your SD card so they can be found easily.

Tip If you have just missed the start of something you wanted to record try

using ReVu to go back to where you want the recording to start then
pressing RECORD. See pages 5 and 6 for more details on using ReVu.
