Compatibility

The VKC180 is only compatible with a Windows

®

 PC. 

The Photo Viewer software is pre-installed on the VKC180 Keychain. 
For the majority of users when the VKC180 is connected to a Windows

®

 PC the soft-

ware will automatically start. If your computer is con

fi

 gured in a way that it does not 

automatically recognize the Photo Viewer software, then you need to install the Photo 
Viewer software

 from the supplied CD-ROM.

Charging the Battery

The VKC180’s battery will have a nominal charge when it leaves the factory. 
We reccomend fully recharging the battery before using the VKC180.

1.  To charge the unit’s battery, insert the supplied USB 

cable into your computer’s USB port, then insert the 
other end into the mimi USB port on the side of the 
VKC180. While charging the VKC180 will display the 
photos that are stored on it. The battery takes about 
3.5 hours to charge. The battery will last up to 5 hours 
on a single charge.

2.   After the battery is charged disconnect the unit.
3.  Press the Power button once to access the menu.
4.   Use the Up & Down button to navigate the menu to 

Power OFF, then press the Power/User Menu button 
once to shut the unit off.

provided on the device”, then the software 
will be temporarily installed on the PC until 
the VKC180 is disconnected. If the software 
can not be started on the VKC180, use the 
Supplied CD-ROM.

installing the Photo Viewer software.
