Technical data

Apparent in the graphics are three different hierarchical types. The highest is the “Drives”
level including the internal memory and external memory. The second level is the “Root
Directory” with the main folders you have created. The last hierarchy type builds the
subfolders. These are the folders inside the main folders. The subfolders can integrate
endless further subfolders and consequently more levels. Do not forget to name all folders
and subfolders.
With the possibility to create such a structure freely, you can design a storage system that
suits you and which makes sense to you. You have the possibility to upgrade or change
your filling structure to your current needs at any time.
Attention: Your Milestone may have some pre-installed folders. These folders are just a
suggestion for a folder structure. Just delete the folders if you can not use them.
Attention: There are devices which automatically create their own folder. For example
Radio creates the folder “Radio” and Speakout creates the folder “Speakout”.
3.2.3. Download or delete files into the folder structure
3.2.3.1. Downloading via computer
On Milestone 312 you can download different types of files. For example text files, music
files, book files etc. The downloading process on Milestone is pretty simple. After you have
set up the folder system by means of the previous two paragraphs, just duplicate the files
from your computer into the preferred folder on Milestone 312 by using the copy/paste
function. Make sure that the available memory capacity on your SD card or internal
memory of M312 at least covers the size of the data you wish to place there.
We advice you to download your files as music, text and books to the folders on the SD
card and use the limited internal memory (”M312”) for voice recordings or Speakout tag
messages. Besides the big capacity, an additional advantage of storing your data on an
SD card is that your data is portable. So you can share, for example, your cards with your
friends.

Extract (rip) music from a CD to your PC before you
download it to M312:
Commercial music albums on CD can not directly be copied to
any portable player over Windows.
When you insert the CD into your computer Windows creates
its own format, which is CDA. CDA is not directly usable. That
is why you have to download the CDA first with a program such
as iTunes, Windows Media Player, CDex etc. This is the usual
process to save music on the computer. The mentioned
programs convert the music tracks into a selectable reduced
size format. Choose one of the possible formats of Milestone
312 (examples on the left column) We suggest MP3.
Attention: Please be aware that protected content, for example
music purchased over internet, cannot be played on Milestone
312.
