Transferring Data
to a PC
This recorder is equipped with a USB terminal
to enable recorded voice data to be transferred
to a PC. For more details on how to transfer
data and voice recognition software, refer to
the supplied DSS Player Pro manual.
Stop the recorder before plugging in the USB
cable. Do not use the AC adapter when
connecting the recorder to the USB port. The
USB port delivers the required power to the
recorder.
Tip
When the SmartMedia card is ejected, data can be
transferred from the SmartMedia card to a PC via a
number of ways. See Page 30 for optional
accessories to download SmartMedia through your
PCMCIA, USB, or Floppy Disk drives.
