Using an SD memory card
You can use an SD card for recording* and playing back DAB digital radio or playing MP2/MP3
files recorded elsewhere. As a rough guide – a 2GB card will give you around 30 hours of DAB
recording time from a 128 kbps broadcast data rate.
Note DMX-60 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 SD card device.
Inserting and removing a card
To insert an SD memory card, 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 and it will pop out so you can remove it.
Note It is not recommended that you remove a card when the SD light is lit.
Recording DAB radio
You can record DAB radio* to SD card.
1.
Press the RECORD button to start recording. You see the record icon (
) flashing.
2.
Press the RECORD button again to stop recording. You see 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 October the 14th, starting at 10:20 am. The
recording also stores the station and multiplex. DAB recordings are saved in a ‘TRACKS’
folder on your SD card so they can be found easily.
Note You can also record radio at a later time using a timed event, see page 14.
Playing a track or playlist
To select tracks on an SD card, either:
•
turn the TUNE/SELECT dial to scroll through the track list, then push to play the
highlighted track or playlist, or open or close a folder.
•
while playing, use the skip forward or skip back shortcut buttons.
•
select a track number in the current folder using the numbered buttons on the remote.
Tracks are numbered in the order they appear on the track list.
