Basic Operations

Notes

• Do not disconnect the USB cable or remove the player from the USB cradle during the access lamp is flashing.

This may cause the data being transferred to be broken.

• Do not connect more than two USB devices to your computer. Normal operation will not be guaranteed.
• Use of this player with a USB hub or a USB extension cable is not guaranteed.
• A malfunction may occur depending on the USB devices connected at any one time.
• When connecting Network Walkman to your computer for the first time, the USB driver Installer window

appears. Please follow the instructions in the Installer window.

• You cannot operate the player while it is connected to a computer.

If you place the player on the USB cradle connected to a computer during playback, playback stops and "PC"
appears on the display.

• Even if you connect the player to a computer, it is impossible to browse the contents of the built-in memory

of the player using the Windows Explorer.

Transfer the music file to Network Walkman (Check-out).

For details on how to operate, refer to the OpenMG Jukebox Operating Instructions.

Tip

To transfer the song back to the computer (check-in), refer to the OpenMG Jukebox software instruction
manual or the online help.

Note on playing back time-limited music
(timeout contents)

Some music data distributed via the Internet (EMD service) have playback time restriction.

When you playback a song with playback time restriction, the timeout icon (page 11) goes on.

If you try to playback a song whose playback period is already expired, the timeout icon flashes
and playback of the next song begins.

We recommended you to check-in or delete the expired song in the player to the computer using
the OpenMG Jukebox software.

OpenMG Jukebox will not playback the expired song  and the expired song will not  be available
for check-out to Network Walkman. Delete these songs as needed.
