The Music Mode Display and On-Screen Commands

The Music Mode screen contains a large central area for visualization

effects with a set of play control buttons along the bottom of the screen.

When a song is playing the name of the song will appear at the top of

the screen as well as the song's length and quality in kilobits per sec-

ond, or Kbps, which is a measure of the song's bandwidth.
To switch to Music Mode from Map Mode select the

M

USIC

button on the

Main Menu. The Music Mode display is designed to be simple. All of

the Music Mode commands are accessible on-screen. Since the 2 GB

(gigabyte) MMC card shipped with the iWAY contains the mapping

data for the unit there may be very limited or no space to store MP3,

Ogg Vorbis or JPEG files on the card. Also, when the MMC card con-

taining mapping data is removed the unit's map mode will not work.

You must have the MMC card with the mapping data in the unit for

the map mode to work. You will need additional MMC cards in order to

store music and picture files.

Music Mode always runs using a "play list" even if this consists of a

single song. You can copy pre-made play list files from your PC to an

MMC card and play the songs in these play lists by selecting them from

the song browser. You can organize your music in folders on your com-

puter then copy them to an MMC card. That way you can play a folder

at a time. When you select a folder to play the iWAY automatically cre-

ates a play list out of all of the songs in the folder.

Using the Play Control Buttons
All of the play control buttons are fairly straightforward and are proba-

bly already familiar to you.
