SMARTSOUND - MOTION ACTIVATED AUDIO PLAYER

Powering the Unit
The unit can be powered directly from an AC outlet using the supplied USB power adapter, or it
can be powered using the internal rechargeable battery. To recharge battery, simply connect
the USB power supply to the unit. Charging time is approximately 4 hours. There is no indictor
to indicate once the battery is fully charged. Once fully charged, the built-in protection circuit
will automatically disconnect charging. When the unit is turned on, it goes through an
initialization process where it may take 10-30 seconds after power up for it to start detecting
motion
If you notice the performance of the unit degrading, such as lower sound volume or it is not
detecting motion, this indicates the battery is low and needs recharging. The factors dictating
how long the unit lasts on a single charge are:
o
Activity in the room (how often unit triggers)
o
Duration of audio files
o
Volume setting selected
When using battery power, the unit will go into low power mode when no motion is detected
to save power. It will automatically wake up when motion is detected. There is a delay of 1s
between detection and sound playback if using internal memory, or 2 seconds if using the
microSD card.
