Licence...

This allows you to licence certain chargeable options, more details of which
are available on the JoeCo website. You will need to advise JoeCo of the

machine key

along with your payment details before JoeCo can enable any

optional software. You will then receive a non-transferable enabling code for
your BlackBox which can be entered into the unit using the

Enter key:

feature. A QWERTY keyboard is recommended for entering the enabling
codes although it is not mandatory.

Troubleshooting

We are confident that the BlackBox Player will give you long and reliable
performance but in case you have difficulties, here are a few things to try
before you call your dealer or distributor.

Problem

correctly into the Player



Reboot (turn power off, wait 10 seconds and turn
power back on again)

for more than a few seconds. This may indicate a
disk problem. Try power cycling Player and disk

PC or Mac

but does not log / find disk



Check that the USB connector is plugged in
correctly to both the Player and the disk drive



Try powering up the Player without a drive attached
and then plugging the drive in afterwards
