MemoryFrame User’s Manual

When the MemoryFrame is connected to a computer running Digital PixMaster with its USB drivers, the MemoryFrame accepts and processes communication from the computer. Digital PixMaster can retrieve the current slideshow in MemoryFrame to the PC (retrieve) for saving or editing, or it can replace the slideshow in the MemoryFrame with a new one from the computer (send).

To transfer slideshows from the PC to your MemoryFrame or from MemoryFrame back to your PC, you must first connect your PC to the MemoryFrame with the USB cable that was provided in the box with the unit.

Connect the larger “standard USB” connector to the USB port of the PC. Connect the smaller “mini-USB” connector to the “PC” connector of the MemoryFrame. See Figure 7.

Important! For the PC application (Digital PixMaster) to communicate to your MemoryFrame, you first need to prepare your MemoryFrame for communicating to a PC, as described in the section below.

Preparing MemoryFrame to Communicate to a PC

The MemoryFrame cannot be managed or communicate with a PC while it is in the Menu system mode. In all cases, you must be in photo slideshow Display mode for Digital PixMaster to communicate. Exit any on-board button menus and return to displaying the current slideshow. This will place the MemoryFrame in the mode that is required to communicate with the PC.

Getting the current slideshow from the MemoryFrame

From the “MemoryFrame” pull-down menu of Digital PixMaster, select Retrieve-Slideshow to get the current slideshow from the MemoryFrame. This function is also available by clicking on

“retrieve-slideshow” icon ( ) in the toolbar. When the MemoryFrame receives the Retrieve-Slideshow command it transfers the current slideshow photos (and associated delay times, fill-colors, delays, etc.) from its memory to the PC. Once complete, you can save or edit this show.

Sending slideshows to the MemoryFrame

Important! Because MemoryFrame will overwrite an existing slideshow if a new one is sent to it, you may want to first Retrieve the existing show to your PC for saving on your PC hard drive before sending a new one.
