• Transfer recorded data from a CF card and edit it using the

PLEXTALK Recording Software (PRS).

• Transfer audio files, in Mp3, Ogg Vorbis or Wave formats, from a PC

to a CF card, and listen to them using PLEXTALK.


NOTE: To use PLEXTALK as an external memory card drive, your PC's

operating system must be Windows ME, 2000 or XP. With Windows 98

Second Edition, you will not be able to use PLEXTALK as an external

memory card drive.

21.2. PLEXTALK's capabilities when connected as an
external CD drive.

When connected to a PC, PLEXTALK can:

• Write to CD-R (recordable CD) media at up to 8X speed.

• Write to CD-RW (rewritable CD) media at up to 8X speed. This

reduces to 4X speed in the case of Multi speed media.

• Reads all CD-ROM and CD-R media at a maximum of 8X speed.

NOTE: In the above statements, because the interface is USB1.1, the

actual value is about 5X or 6X speed rather than 8X.

21.3. Switching PLEXTALK between CD-R/CD-RW drive and
memory card drive.


In order to use PLEXTALK as an external CD-R/CD-RW drive or as an

external memory card drive for a PC, you first need to set PLEXTALK up

correctly. This involves making a change in PLEXTALK's settings to tell the

PC which device it is connected to via the USB cable.


To switch the USB destination, do the following:

• Press the Menu key once to access the Main Menu.
• Use the Number 4 or 6 key to go to the "Control panel" option and

select it by pressing the Enter key.

• Use the Number 4 or 6 key to go to the "Switch USB destination"

option and select it by pressing the Enter key.
