7.1How to Adjust the Settings

Main menu

Settings Screen

Click on the Left button from the Main menu to go to the SETTINGS screen. If you are not at the main menu, click once or twice on the Mode button and you will return to this main screen. Click on the Left button to enter into the Settings screen.

You will use the Up and Down buttons to select the parameter you would like to change. If the parameter’s value is a number, such as the Treble parameter, use your Left and Right button to adjust the value. The change takes place immediately. If it is a text item to adjust, such as Language, you will be taken to another screen where the options are displayed. Use the Up and Down button to highlight the option you would like and then click on the Right button select it. The round indicator will then move to that option indicating that this is the currently validated option.

You can also enter the two submenus (Items 1 and 2) for Music settings and change those parameters in the same way. Click on Mode to return to the previous screen. See appendix A for a complete list of parameters and their default values.

7.2How to Expand the capacity of the Ondio with a MultiMediaCard

Your Ondio has a built-in capacity of 128 Megabytes (Flash memory). If you would like to expand that capacity, you can purchase a MultiMediaCard (MMC) which slides right into the side of the Ondio. These can usually be purchased at the same store you bought your Ondio from. These cards will have capacities of 64 Megabytes, 128 Megabytes, 256 Megabytes, and perhaps more. They will all work with your Ondio. Do not confuse these with the similar looking SD cards. SD cards are not compatible with the Ondio.

You can insert the card into the Ondio while the Ondio is on or off. The MultiMediaCard (MMC) takes the place of the built-in Flash memory. This means that you either listen to and record onto the built in memory OR the expansion MMC memory. When you insert a new (and blank) Multimedia Memory Card, you will not see any of your MP3 files or folder because the Ondio will be looking only at what is on the inserted memory card. If you want to listen to your previously recorded music, voice, or radio, simply pull out the memory card and your Ondio will revert to the contents of its internal flash memory.
