* Recording time is calculated using a single speech  
file recorded continuously. If speech files are  
recorded intermittently, recording time may be  
shorter than indicated.  
When using the DM-1 as a digital music player,  
for copyright protection, a SmartMedia card  
without an ID function cannot be used.  
* Many of the 4MB and 8MB SmartMedia cards  
available in stores do not have the ID function.

• Commercial 5 V SmartMedia cards cannot be used.  
• When using the DM-1 as a digital voice recorder, a  
SmartMedia card without an ID function can be

(when the bit rate is between 160 kbps and 64 kbps)  
Never use SmartMedia cards with products that  
are not compliant with the SSFDC Forum*  
(including certain models of MP3 players).  
* The SSFDC Forum is a voluntary organization  
committed to promoting SmartMedia as a de facto  
standard in the industry. The DM-1 adheres to a  
format recommended by the SSFDC Forum.  
**The possible recording time varies depending on  
the bit rate of the music files. For example, a file  
with a higher bit rate produces better sound quality;  
however, the total possible recording time with such  
files will be shorter.

Ejecting SmartMedia cards  
Attention  
SmartMedia cards are precision devices. Never  
force the cards when inserting them, or subject  
them to sharp blows.  
Avoid handling and storing SmartMedia cards  
in a hot, damp environment.  
Do not touch the contact area (gold electrodes)  
of the SmartMedia card with bare hands.  
If a SmartMedia card gets dirty, wipe it with a soft,  
dry cloth.  
SmartMedia cards may be vulnerable to  
electrostatic data corruption. When carrying a  
SmartMedia card, put it in its case.  
Remember to back up data from SmartMedia cards

Recording  
The recorder provides three folders, A, B, and C, and each message recorded in a folder is  
saved as a Digital Speech Standard (DSS) file. These three folders can be selectively used to  
distinguish the kind of recording; for example, folder A might be used to store private information,  
while folder B might be dedicated to holding business information. Up to 199 messages can be  
recorded per folder.

Using DSS Player  
By connecting the DM-1 to your PC, you will be able to use DSS Player in the following ways:  
To play the voice files from your PC.  
You can send voice mail by sending an attached voice file with e-mail.*  
You can make backup files of the voice files on the SmartMedia card on your PC, and can later  
transfer files on your PC to the DM-1, as necessary.  
* The e-mail software is not included in this package.  
Precautions when handling SmartMedia files on your PC  
G Do NOT format the SmartMedia card  
using your PC. If you do, the DM-1 will  
not be able to recognize the SmartMedia  
card. Only format the cards using either  
the DM-1 or the Olympus CAMEDIA  
digital camera (P.55).  
G If you change or move around the  
filenames on the SmartMedia using a  
file-management tool such as Explorer,  
note that the order of the files may  
change and/or you may not be able to  
recognize the files.  
G The folder names that can be set with  
the DM-1 or the included DSS Player  
are only effective for the DM-1 and DSS  
Player. Note that the default names on  
Microsoft Windows' file management  
software such as Explorer will be  
different names.  
G Even if you use your PC and set the  
SmartMedia card for read only, you will  
still be able to read from and write to  
the SmartMedia using the DM-1.

Depending on the size of the voice file and your PC, it may take longer to download the files.  
(Example: it will take 5 minutes to download a 64MB voice file with a 166-MHz MMX Pentium PC)  
The downloaded files will be stored in the download tray folder that corresponds to the folder in the DM-1  
(Example: A voice file downloaded from Folder A will be stored in download tray  
on your PC.)  
If a voice file already exists on your PC with the same name, date and time recorded, the new file will not be  
downloaded.
