Listening to USB MP3 Songs
The USB Port on the front panel of the Rise & Shine
®
is used to listen to MP3
audio files on USB Flash Drives, also known as “Thumb Drives.”
Your Rise & Shine can play MP3 audio on all standard USB Drives, regardless of
memory capacity. There are limits of not more than 800 MP3 files and not more
than 100 directories (or “folders”) per USB Drive.
Files on USB Drives can be placed in folders and subfolders before being copied
to a USB Drive. This directory structure is maintained on the USB Drive, but
nested folders are displayed “flattened” to a single column, not shown as nested
sub-directories.
Note: Instructions for placing music onto your own USB or SD card are not
provided with this manual. Please visit the Verilux
website for a link to a website that will provide
instructions how to perform this activity.
Note: Only MP3 files can be played and only
directories containing MP3 files will be displayed.
1. Insert a USB Flash Drive or other USB device into
the USB Port on the front panel. As with CD and
DVD discs, USB Drives have a proper “up” side. If the USB
Drive doesn’t insert easily don’t force it. Flip it over and
try again. There should only be a slight resistance as you
insert the drive into the port.
2. Turn the Audio Input Selector to USB.
3. The display will show SEARCHING then LOADING as it
reads the USB memory.
When the contents of the USB Drive are read, the display
shows the USB file structure.
If the MP3 files were copied directly to the USB Drive,
without being first placed in folders, ROOT will be
highlighted in the display.
1. Press the Selector Control Dial to open the default ROOT folder and display
the files on the USB Drive.
2. Turn the Selector Control Dial to highlight an MP3 file.
3. Press the Selector Control Dial to choose the file.
The display returns to the Time/Date display. The MP3 file begins to play and the
file’s title is shown at the bottom of the display.
If the MP3 files were contained in folders before being copied to the USB Drive,
the folder names will be displayed.
1. Turn the Selector Control Dial to highlight a folder name.
