Short Operating Instruction for EDIC-mini CARD16 Recorders
The recorders of the EDIC-mini CARD16 family are professional devices intended for making high
quality record of voice messages onto microSD flash card with the capacity from 2GB to 32 GB.
Recorders of the EDIC-mini series feature really unique characteristics, among which the tiniest
size, maximum autonomy, and high acoustic sensitivity. The recorders have proved themselves
as personal means of recording audio information. The recorders are meant for domestic use by
a mass consumer.
Audio files are recorded in standard WAV format using FAT32 file system, enabling the user to
playback the recordings on almost any PC, tablet or mobile phone by a standard media player.

*The parameter of autonomy is specified for Record Mode 8KHz/8 bit, in case of higher sampling
rate or bitrate, autonomy value is lower (for 16 KHz/16 bit approximately by half). Autonomy
value considerably depends on the model of microSD in use and can vary to be higher or lower.
Recording duration for a microSD with the capacity of 8 GB in the mode 8 KHz/8 bit - 272
hours, 8 KHz/16 bit and 16 KHz/8 bit - 136 hours, 16 KHz/16 bit - 68 hours. For microSD with
alternative capacity values, recording duration is measured in direct ratio to battery capacity.
Allowable operation-and-storage temperature…………………. 0+50°C
Operating lifetime…………………………3 years
Main Features:
1. 4 timers to enable recording at the preset time
2. Built-in clock, calendar, attachment of records to time and date
3. Control and indication: Switch (ON/OFF) and 2 LEDs (green, red).
Operating the Recorder
1. Charging the Recorder
For recorders with rechargeable battery
First charge the battery. To do this remove microSD from the Recorder. Then insert the supplied
cable into the connector of the microSD, and connect the cable to the USB port of the PC or any
other power source with output voltage 5V and a USB connector with a current of at least 500
mA and no more than 1000 mA. During charging, red LED is on. Full charging takes
approximately 3-4 hours. As the charging is completed, green LED will be on. To retrieve
charging cable, gently press on the cable and retrieve it.
