Getting Started
The rst step in using your device is charging it. Connect the
device to a USB port on your PC or plug it into AC power with
the included adapter. While charging, the LED indicator will
ash red and will turn off when the battery is full. Before rst
use, we suggest charging the device for 4 hours.
This device does not have internal memory and relies on a
micro SD card for storing recorded les. The micro SD card
should be inserted with the gold contacts facing up. The
Mini Recorder is compatible with micro SD cards up to 16GB
capacity.

Changing the Date & Time
Connect the Mini Recorder to your computer using the USB
cable. Most computers will automatically recognize the device
and a window may pop up with options. Choose the option
to “Open Folder to View Files.” This will take you to the root
directory of the device. Within the root directory, you need
to create a new text le. To do this, right click on an open
area within the root directory window to bring up the context
menu. Then select “New” and choose “Text Document”. This
will generate a new text le in the root directory. Right click on
the new text le and select “Rename”. Change the lename
to “TAG” and hit enter. Now double‐click on the TAG text le
and it will open up a text window. In the text window, type in
the following:
[date]
YYYY/MM/DD
HH:MM:SS

To Record
When the Mini Recorder is powered on, press the record
button to begin recording. When the device is recording, the

LED light. To stop the recording, press the Record button
again. The ashing purple LED light will disappear leaving just
the blue steady glow indicating that the device has stopped
recording and has returned to stand by.
Replace the YYYY with the 4 digit year, MM with the 2
digit month, and DD with the 2 digit date, HH with the 2
digit hour, MM with the 2 digit minute, and SS with 2 digit
second. When done, click on “File” on the menu bar and
select “Save”. Now you can safely disconnect your Mini
Recorder from your computer. Power On the device and it
will save the text le you create and adjust the time/date
stamp on the future recordings.

Viewing Recorded Files
To view recorded les, connect the Mini Recorder to your
computer using the USB cable. Most computers will automati-
cally recognize the device and a window may pop up with op-
tions. Choose the option to “Open Folder to View Files”. This
will take you to the root directory of the device. Within the root
directory, double click on the “DCIM” folder. Your recorded
les are stored within the “100MEDIA” folder.
You can also go to “MY COMPUTER” or “COMPUTER” on
your Desktop or Start Menu. From there, your device will show
as a “Removable Disk Drive”. Once you’re in the root directory
of the device, follow the above steps.

NOTE: It is best to transfer the recorded les to your computer
before viewing. Playing the recorded les through the Mini
Recorder while it’s connected to the computer might cause the
video to display as delayed or choppy.
You can view your recorded les using your PC’s media player.
If you are having problems viewing your recorded les, we rec-
ommend downloading VLC Media Player at www.videolan.org.

Troubleshooting
Problem: The device is “stuck” with the LED light on and is not
responding to any buttons.
Solution: This issue occurs most commonly when the device
is given too many commands too quickly (rapidly pressing the
power button repeatedly). This can cause it to freeze up. If this
occurs, use a paperclip or other small object to gently push the
Reset button. Then try operating the device again.
Problem: The device is not being recognized by your computer.
Solution: Check the micro SD card to see that it has been in-
serted properly. Disconnect and wait 30 seconds before recon-
necting, or try a different USB port on the computer.
