Yes. When using a new memory card, format the card inside the unit BEFORE trying to record on the card.
If the memory card has been used in any other device (Digital Camera, MP3 Player, etc) you must first format the card using a computer and then again in the RLX unit BEFORE using the card.
|
The RLX uses a rechargeable Lithium-Polymer battery pack.
|
It takes 4 hours to completely charge the internal battery.
|
A fully charged battery will give you about 15-16 hours of usage before you need to recharge it again.
|
USB 1.1. However, it will function with systems using USB 2.0.
|
|
|
The RLX shuts off automatically if it remains idle for 1, 3, or 5 minutes. You can adjust the amount of time that passes before auto shut-off occurs by configuring the 'Auto-Off Time' function in the 'System' menu options.
|
Yes, A 'short press' of the fast-forwarded button once will advance through the file being played at a rate of 10 seconds per second pressed. A 'long-press' of the fast-forward button will advance the file 1 minute per second pressed. The same thing can be accomplished in reverse by pressing the rewind button.
|
The RLX will playback both MP3 and WMA formats. However, the RLX can only record in the MP3 format.
|
Yes, the ID3 Tag Support function must be enabled.
|
With the HOLD button 'on' (in the UP position) the RLX is locked. No settings can be changed while the HOLD button is on.
|
The earphones also act as an FM antenna when in use. When listening to the RLX via the internal speaker, you can plug the FM antenna wire into the earphone jack. The FM antenna and earphones cannot both be used at the same time.
|
The software contains drives needed to interface the RLX with Windows 98SE. This software is NOT needed and does not need to be used with any other Windows Operating Systems.
|
Click on the 'My Computer' icon. Look for a removable disk icon, usually displayed as Drive E or F. Double click on the disk icon belonging to the RLX. Files from the PC can now be downloaded onto the RLX via dragging and dropping, copying and pasting, etc. Likewise, files can be uploaded to the PC from the RLX using these same methods.
Note: 1 GB SD Cards can only hold 420 MB on the root directory. To place more than 420 MB on the SD card, simply create a folder on the root directory and place the files inside of that folder.
|
You may need to perform a "hard reset". A hard reset will erase all schedules and programming that may be affecting the recording time of your RLX, it will also fix other issues that may be a factor. To perform a hard reset: 1.) slide the HOLD switch to the ON position, 2.) press and hold down the ERASE button (do not release the Erase button) and 3.) use a paper clip or pencil to press the RESET once (do not hold the RESET). After about 15 seconds the screen should display "Formatting please wait". At this time you can release the ERASE button and slide the HOLD switch to the off position. Your RLX will now be reset and ready to use, and should no longer stop recording on its own.

Kilobytes Per Second = (kbps)
1,000 kilobytes = 1 Megabyte (MB)
Recording time on 128MB
32kbps = 8.5 hours
64kbps = 4.25 hours
128kbps = 2.12 hours
256kbps = 1.6 hours
An average song length of 4 minutes recorded at 128kbps takes up about 3MB of memory. So, an RLX with 128MB of memory can store 42 songs recorded at 128kbps.

No, memory cards larger than 1GB are not supported. The results from using them can unpredictable.
