CHECK SD CARD HAS BEEN INSERTED CORRECTLY
CHECK SD FORMATTED CORRECTLY
CHECK MP3 FILES INSTALLED
CHECK FORMAT OF MP3 (It cannot be WAV or AAC)
MP3 files cannot be “Read Only” See page 9.
Note 1: MP3 files should have the following specifications
for optimum performance. 128kbps, 44.1kHz, 32bit, VBR or
CBR, Stereo (even better as mono).
CHECK CONFIGURATION FILE (Incorrect time??)
The unit is in standby mode. Press the Power/Standby
switch. The unit is ON when the Blue ON LED is illuminated.
Make sure all MP3 files are not “Read Only”. See page 9.
This could be caused by MP3 files which are Read Only. The
unit will attempt to play the file but not be able to play it,
hence the MP3 will not be played at the appointed time.
The times are saved to a file named “config.cnf”. This file
cannot be named anything else. It must also be saved to
the root folder of the SD card.
