You can also start recording to a new file directly by choosing the Save file and start a new recording menu item while you are recording.

Be careful that the source audio is supplying a line-level and not an amplified signal (turning down the volume of the player will work if you are using the headphone out signal of your audio device). A signal that is amplified too much will result in a ter- ribly distorted recording.

8.5USB Host Connection

•With the optional Docking Adapter or DVR Station, you can connect compatible

USB devices to the ARCHOS, in order to transfer files or pictures.

•These devices can be Mass Storage Class (MSC) devices, such as digital cameras, card readers or external hard drives, or digital cameras using the Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP).

To connect a USB device to your ARCHOS™ device:

•Clip the Docking Adapter into the ARCHOS™’s docking connector or place the ARCHOS™ on the DVR Station.

•Connect a standard USB cable to the DVR Station or Docking Adapter and to the external USB device.

•Turn on the external USB device if needed (check the documentation of your ex- ternal USB device).

•A double browser window will appear on the ARCHOS™: the external USB device will appear in the left panel, and your ARCHOS™ device’s hard drive in the right panel.

•Follow the instructions in the ‘copying and moving files’ section to copy your pic- tures or files to the ARCHOS™.

To disconnect:

Make sure that no transfer is being made (the HDD light should not be flickering) and simply pull out the USB cable on either end.

Note 1: you may not always be able to copy files to your external USB device from your ARCHOS™.

Note 2: you cannot connect your ARCHOS™ to a computer and connect an external device to your ARCHOS™ at the same time.
