Tascam MP-VT1 MP3 Player User Manual


 
4 TASCAM MP-VT1
The MP-VT1 uses a built-in lithium ion battery that can
be recharged by connecting the unit to a computer with
the included USB cable. You can also use an AC adapter
(sold separately) to power the unit and recharge the
battery.
When new, the battery charge lasts about 8 hours.
NOTE
When you purchase the MP-VT1, the battery is not
fully charged. Please charge it before use or use it
with an AC adapter (sold separately).
Recharging with a computer
To charge the battery using a computer, connect the unit
to the computer using the included USB cable and turn
the computer on if it is off and not transmitting power to
the unit.
Connect the MP-VT1 directly to the computer.
Recharging cannot be guaranteed if a USB hub is used
between the computer and the MP-VT1.
Recharging takes about 6 hours (when the MP-VT1
power is OFF).
If the MP-VT1’s power is turned ON when it is being
recharged from a computer, it is automatically treated
by the computer as a connected USB drive. (See
“Connecting to a computer” on page 11.)
Recharging with a PS-P520 AC adapter
(sold separately)
Connect the AC adapter to the MP-VT1’s DC IN 5V jack
and plug the adapter into a working power outlet.
Recharging takes about 3 hours.
You can use the MP-VT1 when it is connected to an AC
adapter and recharging.
Furthermore, the recharging time is the same whether
the MP-VT1 power is ON or OFF.
NOTE
The indicator at the right side of the display shows
the battery’s charging status. It lights orange while
charging and goes out when charging is complete.
