Saber Hand Wind Audio Player - Maintenance Guide
Space for internal playlist
The player creates an internal play list which it uses to play the files when the unit is first powered
on after changes are made by the computer. It is recommended that 20Mb of space is left available
on the internal memory for this playlist. If the space is not left, the player will turn on, and the green
light flashes at high speed, but will then turn off.
3.2.2 Manual connecting and transferring audio files onto player
Audio files can be manually transferred to the internal onboard memory by using the USB
connection.
1) Turn player off (before connection is made to the computer)
2) On the computer start “Windows Explorer” and view “My Computer”. Identify the existing
drives on the computer.
3) Connect the player to the computer using a 5 pin Mini B USB cable.
- If the USB locking firmware has been installed on the player, please refer to the Saber
Lock Pack documentation for advice on the connection to the computer.
4) About 5 to 50 seconds after the USB connection is made, 2 new “removable disk” drives
will appear. The first of these new drives will be the internal onboard memory inside the
player. The second drive will be the SD Card on the Saber player.
5) Delete any audio files on the player that are no longer necessary.
6) Copy the audio folders and files (following the naming convention explained previously)
onto the player, onto either the internal onboard memory, or the SD card drive.
7) Once completed, disconnect the USB cable from the player and computer.
8) Turn on the player, and confirm that the audio files work as expected.
3.2.3 Benefits of using the provided SaberCopy utility
The SaberCopy utility is Windows based software that assists with the correct sequencing and
copying of audio files on to the Saber. It is recommended that you read the SaberCopy usage
instructions as this describes the steps necessary to prepare the folders and files required before
using the SaberCopy utility.
