Initial Setup - Adding Media
Before you can enjoy your pictures, music, and movies on the go you must copy them onto the drive from a
computer. Simply connect the included USB cable to the drive and an available USB port on your home laptop or
PC. In most cases you will not need to use the power cable, but if your computer is having difficulty recognizing
the drive then please connect it as well.
No additional software is needed - your media drive should be recognized automatically. You will see a new drive
letter appear in the My Computer window. Treat your media drive the same as you would any storage device
such as a thumb drive or memory stick. Arrange your pictures, music, and movies in folders however you wish.
Keep in mind that placing many files in one large folder will take longer to browse than several well-organized
smaller folders.

This device can play back MPEG1/VCD, MPEG2, DivX/Xvid(AVI), DVD Folder, MP3 and WAV music files,
JPEG photo and graphic files. You can store program and other data files on the drive as well.
When you have finished adding your own content to the media drive, look for a tray icon such as this one
called Safely Remove Hardware in the lower right and left click on it. Choose the menu option
that lists your media drive and wait for confirmation that it is safe to remove the drive before unplugging
the USB cable.

Setup – AV connections
When connecting your drive to a television, projector, or receiver you may use either composite or
component cabling.
Composite cabling is the most common and supports only standard definition. You will need only the
cable with the yellow, white, and red connections for a composite setup.
17
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Component cabling is considered higher quality and allows your drive to output a high resolution signal.
Keep in mind that even when your drive is displaying at high resolution the content is being scaled up
from standard resolution and is not truly high definition.
When using component cabling you will need the cable with green, blue, and red connections. You will
also need the composite cable, but only for the audio (white and red) plugs.
18

After the audio and video cables are connected simply plug in the power adapter, and turn on the drive
using the power button on the drive or remote control. After a few seconds the blue power light on the
drive should stop blinking and you should see the media drive interface on your screen. If you do not,
please press the video mode button on the drive (see reference above) until you see a clear picture.
If you prefer, you may also press the Menu and Fast Forward buttons on the remote
simultaneously to do the same thing. This will cycle the unit through available output modes
until you find one that is supported by your display.
