5.1 Charging the Device

Figure 3: Charging the Voice Recorder.

Before first use, fully charge the recorder. Connect the device to a USB power source (e.g., computer USB port, USB wall adapter) using the provided USB cable. A full charge typically takes approximately 2.5 hours.

5.2 Setting the Time

To ensure accurate timestamps on your recordings, synchronize the recorder's time with your computer's system time:

1. Ensure the recorder is turned OFF before connecting it to your computer.
2. Connect the recorder to your computer via the USB cable. It will appear as a 'USB DISK'.
3. Open the 'USB DISK' drive.
4. Locate and open the folder named 'Settime'.
5. Inside the 'Settime' folder, run the application named 'SetDigitRecorderTm'. This application will automatically synchronize the recorder's time with your computer's system time.
6. Once synchronization is complete, safely eject the recorder from your computer.

Note: macOS does not support using this method to modify the time.

5.3 Activating Voice Activation (VOR)

The voice activation function is OFF by default. To enable or adjust it:

1. Ensure the recorder is turned OFF before connecting it to your computer.
2. Connect the recorder to your computer via the USB cable. It will appear as a 'USB DISK'.
3. Open the 'USB DISK' drive.
4. Locate the file named 'RECSET.txt'.
5. Copy 'RECSET.txt' to your computer's desktop.
6. Open the 'RECSET.txt' file on your desktop using a text editor (e.g., Notepad on Windows, TextEdit on macOS).
7. Look for the line that begins with 'Vor'. The default setting is 'Vor:0', which means voice activated mode is off. To enable it, change 'Vor:0' to 'Vor:1' (or a value between 1-7 for sensitivity, where 7 is most sensitive).
8. You can also adjust the recording sensitivity ('Gain') and bitrate ('Bit') in this file. It is generally not recommended to modify the bitrate unless you understand the implications.
9. Save the changes to 'RECSET.txt'.
10. Delete the original 'RECSET.txt' file from the 'USB DISK'.
11. Copy the modified 'RECSET.txt' file from your desktop back to the 'USB DISK'.
12. Safely eject the recorder from your computer.
13. Restart the recorder by sliding the ON/OFF switch to OFF, then back to ON, for the changes to take effect.

6. Operating Instructions

7. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Vormooi Digital Voice Recorder:

• Keep the device dry and away from moisture.
• Avoid exposing the device to extreme temperatures (hot or cold).
• Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
• Regularly back up your important recordings to a computer or cloud storage to prevent data loss.
• Avoid dropping or subjecting the device to strong impacts.

8. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Vormooi Digital Voice Recorder, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Device not turning on: Ensure the battery is charged. Connect to a USB power source and allow it to charge for at least 30 minutes before attempting to power on again.
• Cannot record: Check if the device has sufficient storage space. Ensure the ON/OFF switch is fully in the 'ON' position.
• Poor recording quality: Ensure the microphone is not obstructed. If Voice Activation (VOR) is enabled, adjust the sensitivity settings in 'RECSET.txt'. Ensure the device is placed in an optimal position for sound capture.
• Device not recognized by computer: Ensure the recorder is turned OFF before connecting. Try a different USB port or cable. Restart your computer.
• Cannot play WAV files on Windows: Use 'Windows Media Player' instead of 'Groove Music'.
• Voice Activation not working: Verify that 'Vor' is set to a value between 1-7 in 'RECSET.txt' and that the recorder was restarted after saving the changes.
