ECHO DESKTOP BASICS
Echo Desktop provides views, menus, toolbars, and controls you can use to view and manage
notes and audio transferred from your smartpen.
RUNNING ECHO DESKTOP
To run Echo Desktop and transfer notes and audio from your smartpen, follow these
steps.
Use only the connector that came with your product: the Micro-USB cable for Echo
smartpens or the USB Mobile charging cradle for Pulse smartpens.
Note: After docking your smartpen, do not remove it until content
transfer is complete. Echo Desktop shows a message confirming that
the transfer is successful and you may now undock the smartpen.
Important: Be sure that your computer does not go into sleep mode
during the transfer process. If it does, undock and redock your
smartpen so transfer can restart.
1. Launch Echo Desktop.
2. Dock your smartpen.
If your smartpen is authorized for the computer you are using, data transfer
begins automatically.
3. Do not undock your smartpen until the transfer is complete. Echo Desktop
shows a message confirming transfer success.
4. If prompted, type a name for your smartpen. This is the name that displays in
Echo Desktop to identify your smartpen. This name also displays on your
smartpen when you power it on.
5. If you have not registered your smartpen, Echo Desktop prompts you to do
so.
6. The smartpen selector in the Navigation Pane allows you to choose which
smartpen content to view in Echo Desktop.
Echo Desktop shows the Library of notebooks and other paper products that
you have used with the selected smartpen, including your notes and any audio
you have recorded. Echo Desktop can also show details about the selected
smartpen, including its battery and storage usage.
When you transfer content to Echo Desktop, the original content remains on the
smartpen. In this sense, transferring content actually means copying it from the
smartpen to Echo Desktop.
