1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview
First of all, we would like to thank you for the purchase of this OTG AUDIO
Player. Welcome to a new solution for mobile interconnectivity: USB 2.0
OTG (On-The-Go)*!
Enhanced with a USB OTG interface, this portable AUDIO Player
combines versatility and quality. Besides working as an audio player it
plays a dual role as a host or a peripheral. When it connects to other USB
mobile devices/peripherals such as MP3 players, digital cameras, card
readers, or flash memory disks (that are compliant to USB Mass Storage
Class), it supports data backup and downloading without linking to a PC.
When connected to PC, it works as a storage device (Hard drive) enabling
large data storage.
With this handy and efficient OTG AUDIO Player navigating your music
library and managing files will be quick and simple. Here is an overview of
the key features:
•
Sleek & compact size, ideal for On-The-Go backup
•
Streamlined controls and animated function icons for easy
operation
•
Intelligent USB2.0 OTG interface with dual role capability (host or
peripheral)
•
Dynamically switches between USB2.0 On-The-Go (OTG)
Storage Device mode and USB2.0 OTG Host (stand-alone)
•
One-Touch copy and backup data from any USB mass storage
device without connecting to a PC
•
Removable Lithium-ion rechargeable battery
•
Distinctive LCD display indicating host/device mode, battery level
status, copy progress etc.
•
Auto power saving mode
1
* USB On-The-Go (OTG) is a new supplement to the USB 2.0
specification that augments the capability of existing mobile devices and
USB peripherals by adding host functionality for connection to USB
peripherals. USB OTG defines a way for portable devices, through only
one mini-connector, to connect to supported USB products in addition to
the PC. (Please refer to www.usb.org for more details on USB OTG.)

1.3 Charging the battery
1.3.1 Connection
1.
Plug one end of the AC adapter to the DC jack of the player.
2.
Connect the AC adapter to a power socket.
AC adapter for this product is 100~240V, 50~60Hz
Note:
The first time the battery is charged, it will take approximately 3
hours.
Battery recharge time in normal operation is approximately 2
hours.
We recommend that you charge the battery with AC adapter,
which is faster, though it’s also available to charge the battery
with USB cable connecting to PC.
If the device hangs, open the battery door (on the rear of the
player). Remove the battery and put it back in again.

1.3.2 Caution
•
To avoid the risk of fire, do not charge longer than 12 hours.
•
Do not plug several devices into the same outlet.
•
Do not use a rechargeable battery or charger that is defective.
When using the rechargeable battery for the first time or after
several months of non-use, fully charge it first.
•
•
•
•
Overcharging will reduce the battery life.
The rechargeable battery is a consumable item and its capacity
will decrease gradually.
To prolong the life of your battery, use the fully charged battery
until it is completely discharged, and then fully charge it again
before use. If you charge the battery that is not completely
drained, the battery operating time will decrease. In this case, fully
cycle (fully charge and then fully discharge) the battery several
times.
•
Do not let metallic objects, such as necklaces or coins, come into
contact with the terminals (metallic parts) of the charger and the
built-in rechargeable battery. A fire or electric shock may result.
