OPERATING THE USB DISCREET VOICE RECORDER

This device is very simple to use: “ON” means the device is recording. “OFF” means the device is NOT recording (and is in Flash Drive mode).

  1. Slide the switch to “ON.” Blue and red lights will illuminate. Then the red lights will flash several times, indicating that recording has begun. Note: The red LEDs will turn off or secrecy, however the device will continue to record.
  2. Slide the switch to “OFF.” Blue and red lights will illuminate, and then turn off. This indicates that the recording has stopped, and your file has been saved.

Note: The recording starts about 5 seconds after you switch to ON and stops recording about 5 seconds after you switch to OFF. This is because the internal firmware needs time to initialize properly.

TRANSFERING FILES TO A COMPUTER

  1. While the device is OFF, plug it into a USB port.
  2. The disc icon will appear on your desktop. Double click it to open the disc. Then double click the folder named RECORD. You will see all of your recorded files.
  3. At this point, you can listen to the files, delete files or drag them to your computer hard drive for storage.

CHECKING THE BATTERY LEVEL

While the switch is ON, press the @ button for 1 second. The red lights will illuminate to show you the remaining battery power. Each red light = 25% of the battery life, as follows:

4 red lights = 100% charged
3 red lights = 75% charged
2 red lights = 50% charged
1 red light = 25% charged

Note: If your battery runs out while you are recording, the red light will flash 20 times and the device will shut down.

CHECKING THE STORAGE CAPACITY

While the switch is ON, press the @ button for 3-4 seconds. The blue lights will illuminate to show you the remaining disk space. Each blue light is approximately 25% capacity. Since the total capacity is 8GB, the capacity will be displayed as follows:

4 red lights = 100% free space (approx. 8GB)
3 red lights = 75% free space (approx. 6GB)
2 red lights = 50% free space (approx. 4GB)
1 red light = 25% free space (approx. 2GB)

Note: The @ button does not work when the device is switched in the OFF position.

RESETTING YOUR DEVICE

In the unlikely event of a crash, you may hit the reset key by inserting the end of a small paper clip into the hole marked RESET on the device.

CHARGING YOUR DEVICE

  1. Turn the power OFF
  2. Plug the USB Discreet Voice Recorder into a USB port.
  3. The red lights will flash as the device is charging as follows:

1 flashing red light = 25% charged
2 flashing red lights = 50% charged
3 flashing red lights = 75% charged
4 flashing red lights = almost 100% charged
4 solid red lights = 100% charged (charge complete)

SETTING THE DATE AND TIME (OPTIONAL, FOR WINDOWS COMPUTERS ONLY)

Before recording, you can set the Date and Time to help you keep track of your recordings.
