:: Basic Connections

This chapter describes how to connect the Rio Forge to earphones, mini USB cables, and alternate devices. Basic connections include:

Battery

The Rio Forge uses a single AAA-battery that can provide many hours of use. The Battery Compartment Cover must be removed before a battery can be installed.

Earphones

Connect the supplied earphones to the EARPHONES jack on the bottom of the Rio Forge.

USB

The Rio Forge must be connected using the included USB cable to the USB port on your computer before music or files can be transferred to and from the Rio Forge and your computer.

USB Detection with the Windows Device Driver

USB connectivity works immediately. Installation of device driver software is not required unless your computer uses the Windows 98 SE operating system.

If using Windows 98 SE the Windows Device Driver Wizard will be displayed after the USB cable has been plugged into both the Rio Forge and the computer. Please follow these steps:

1Confirm the Rio installation CD is in the computer’s CD-ROM drive.

2Check the CD-ROM Drives box when the Windows Device Driver Wizard requests the location of the Rio Forge drivers.

3Click Next and follow the Windows Device Driver Wizard instructions.
