Operating Instructions
There are two operating modes in ProPLAY– “playlist mode” and “simple play mode”
.
•
Playlist mode
When operating in playlist mode, both project file (*.prj) and playlist file (*.pll)
must be present on the Compact Flash card. These are used to control the
sequence for all audio tracks.
The project and playlist file are created using
ProPLAY Studio
software. Using
this software, you can set simple sequences or complex sequences including
“jump track“ or “next track” actions. ProPLAY Studio can also program buttons
with different function like “play”, “stop”, “pause”, “mute”, “previous”, “next” and
“volume”.
Note: Make sure all capital letters in filename defined in playlist are consistence
with the filename on CompactFlash card. All filename should be in 8+3 format
(i.e. xxxxxxxx.xxx) and avoid using any illegal characters like “~”, “_”, “-“, etc
•
Simple play mode
In simple play mode, the user just copies all audio files (.mp3) onto the
Compact Flash card. The ProPLAY Audio will play these files in alphabetical
sequence.
