Installing and Removing the Desktop Stand  
The desktop stand is removable for convenience in wall mount environments. When  
installed, the stand can be adjusted whether the frame is in landscape or portrait  
orientation. When in either landscape or portrait orientation the stand has additional  
fine adjustments so that the tilt angle of the display face can be adjusted to a wide  
variety of look and appeal. Use the following procedure for best results:  
Do not use force to pull the power cord. Don't  
place anything heavy on the power cord, as this  
may cause electric shock or fire.  
Installing the Stand  
1. Lay the frame with the display face down on a soft cloth to avoid scratches.  
2. Insert the stand so that the arrow point of the stand matches to the arrow point of  
the stand receptacle.  
3. Turn the stand counterclockwise until the first click. The stand is now locked into  
the receptacle with the smallest tilt angle.  
4. When you continue to turn the stand counterclockwise further, additional clicks will  
be felt. Each click increases the tilt angle slight for about 2 clicks yielding maximum  
tilt angle.  
5. Turning counterclockwise another click will become the maximum tilt angle when  
the frame is in portrait orientation. With each additional counterclockwise click, the  
tilt angle will decrease accordingly until the hard stop is felt.  
Make sure to turn the power off and disconnect the  
power plug from the outlet before moving the  
product. Make sure to disconnect the connection  
cables from other devices as well. Moving the  
product without disconnecting the power cord may  
damage it while moving, and may cause electric  
shock or fire.  
Removing the Stand  
1. Lay the frame with the display down on a soft cloth to avoid scratches.  
2. Move the stand clockwise until the stand unlocks.  
Do not install the product near any heating  
appliance. There is a risk of fire.  
8.  
Setting Up the Frame  
Use the following procedure and pictorial below to prepare the unit to play content.  
Plug one end of the AC adapter into the  
digital photo frame and plug the other end  
into a standard AC electrical outlet.  
Insert a memory card into the appropriate  
slot.  
Slide the power switch to the ON position.  
The frame will auto play the content, unless  
there is no content, in which case the Main  
Menu will appear.

Auto Play  
Power Switch  
By default, the frame will automatically play a slideshow when power is applied. External  
media will be checked first starting with the card media slot, followed by the USB port. If  
there is no media or content externally, the frame will play from internal memory. If there is  
no content internally, the Main Menu will be displayed. A complimentary slideshow is  
included so you may instantly see it operate while you become familiar with the operation  
and controls. If a slideshow is playing from internal memory, and external media is inserted,  
the frame will halt the current slideshow and automatically begin to play the new inserted  
media. When the media card is removed, the frame will halt and play from internal memory.

temporarily inoperative” message. The PC recognizes the frame as a USB storage class  
device. The internal memory and the media slot are shown as separate drive letters. The  
The remote control is a convenient way to access external devices and internal  
memory or manage the way the content is played. The layout of the user interface is  
designed for maximum ease of use. Because the menu functions all operate in a  
similar manner, navigation is quick and easy to learn.

Rechargeable Battery  
Certain models are equipped with an internal rechargeable battery. This allows full  
operation of the frame when disconnected from main power. This option has high value  
when mobility and portability are desired, such as sharing with groups, on vacation, or  
quickly connect to a USB port to download more content. The battery charges when power  
is applied. As with all rechargeable devices, occasionally the frame should be operated only  
from the battery until the battery is fully discharged. This maintains the best performance of  
the battery over time.

images may be useful for other tasks, it is not necessary to have such high density for  
playing on the frame. This function is used to resize the original image for best fit on the  
display, usually resulting in reducing image storage needs or storing more images in  
internal memory. Check the Question and Answer section in the rear of this manual.

is very easy and quick to do, needing only a common paperclip or the supplied Bezel  
Removal Tool to free the bezel from the unit. See below.  
28.  
File  
Removing the bezel  
This is the function used to view all files types that the frame recognizes. This is also  
where files are tagged for Copy/Delete.  
1. With the back of the frame facing you, use the Bezel Removal Tool or a  
paperclip, slide it flat side through one of the slots in the frame. See above  
pictorial.  
2. Push the tool/paperclip through until the bezel is released from the unit and  
remove the bezel.

2. Note that the IR remote control iris is located at the top of the bezel and  
matches to the IR sensor at the top center of the frame. Care should be taken  
to assure this iris is located at the top of the frame when inserting another  
bezel. Otherwise the Remote Control operation may become unstable.  
3. With the unit laying flat on a surface with the display facing up at you, place  
the bezel on top of the front of the unit with the shiny side facing out, the  
magnetic discs match up together, and the iris is in the upper center of the  
frame.  
5. Once finished, press the COPY/DELETE button on the remote control. A  
secondary screen will appear to select either Copy or Delete.  
6. Navigate to the desired choice and ENTER to execute.

from either external or internal memory.  
29.  
Changing the Frame  
MemoryFrametm has the ability to mount a standard open frame so that you can  
change the look of the frame to suit your decor. Standard 8”x10” open frames mount on  
8.4” MemoryFrame and 9”x12” open frames mount on 10.4” MemoryFrame. Although  
there are a wide variety of 8x10 and 9x12 frames, typical open frames have these  
common cavity dimensions. The difference in cavities is typically the depth and whether  
to accommodate matte, glass, and backing. The way the backing is attached to the  
cavity determines how easy the frame can be used with the MemoryFrame. Refer to  
the Frame Mounting Guide on our website www.memoryframe.com.  
31.  
Changing the Remote Control Battery  
The Remote Control operates from battery power. The battery for the Remote Control  
is mounted into a cavity that can be opened for convenient battery replacement. The  
Remote Control uses a conventional CR2025 3VDC battery that is easily changed  
using the guideline below:  
1. Using your finger, press the release arm and slide the battery tray out  
simultaneously. Note the orientation of the battery and holder.  
2. Remove and replace with a new battery into the battery tray with the proper  
orientation.  
3. Slide the battery tray closed until the release level locks. The Remote Control  
is now ready for operation.

32. Cleaning the LCD Screen  
1. The digital frame should be treated with care. The screen is made of glass  
and can be scratched or broken.  
2. To clean fingerprints or dust from the LCD screen, use a soft, non-abrasive  
cloth such as a camera lens cloth to clean the LCD screen.  
3. When using a commercial LCD cleaning kit, apply the cleaning liquid to the  
cloth, not directly to the LCD screen.  
4. Do not use liquids that contain alcohol or other caustic cleaning solution.  
5. For the outer surface of the digital frame (excluding the screen) use a soft  
cloth dampened with water.  
33. Tips, Techniques, Troubleshooting  
Q. The unit does not turn On.  
A
Make sure the unit is plugged into a working AC outlet. Make sure the DC  
power connector is securely connected.  
Q. The unit does not operate from the battery when first tried.  
A. To maintain the optimal life of the battery, it is discharged when shipped.  
When connected to the AC adapter, the battery will charge. When first used,  
the battery should charge for at least 24 hours. During the normal course of  
use, it is always recommended that occasionally the unit operate on battery  
only until fully discharged. In this manner, when recharged again, maximum  
and life can be expected.  
Q. Sometimes I see folders, but the filmstrip view is blank.  
A. When you are in Photo mode, all folders will be shown, even if they do not  
have images inside. When you navigate to a folder that does not have images,  
the filmstrip will be blank, indicating that there are no images in this folder.  
When you highlight a folder that has images, the filmstrip view will activate  
presenting 5 images at a time, scrolling right to left.  
Q. If I need Tech Support, how do I contact.  
A. You can reach Technical Support by email at [email protected]  
Q. I don’t get as many images stored in memory as expected. What can be the  
cause?  
A. The number of images that can be stored depends on several factors. These  
include:  
• The megapixel rating of the camera  
• The resolution setting of the camera when pictures are being taken  
• The setting of Copy Picture Type in the Settings Menu  
All of these factors together determine the number of images that can be  
stored in the memory of the frame. By setting the camera to the lowest  
resolution, the original images will be smaller, and when the Picture Copy  
Type is also set to Resize when copying, additional compression will be  
applied. This will maximize the number of stored images for the camera used.
