Before using Gnome-PII for recording, please do the following:
Connect Gnome-PII to PC using USB connection cable (see section 6.4);
Install the driver from the installation CD (see section 8.2);
Set current date/time and recording options according to recording conditions (see section

Before connecting your voice recorder to a PC, make sure the PC case is effectively
grounded. Grounding is strictly recommended if you intend to connect your voice
recorder to a PC and an external signal source at the same time.
It is not recommended to connect multiple Gnome-PII voice recorders to a PC at a time.
Otherwise it may result in the Voice Recorder Manager application malfunction.

7.3.1 Recording Hints
The voice can be recorded in PCM* 16 or 24 bit format without compression or with A-law or μ-
law compression.
To obtain high-quality audio recording, we recommend you to follow the guidelines below.
* Pulse-code modulation (PCM) is a digital representation of an analog signal that takes samples of the
amplitude of the analog signal at regular intervals.
