The NanoPlayer mkII is an audio player which reads MP3 and WAV files stored on a SD/SDHC memory
card. Playback can be automated to read files in loop or when triggered by the input contact.

sound effects or commentaries are required such as museums, exhibitions, POS displays...
2 - Functionalities
Interactivity: The NanoPlayer mkII is interactive, i.e it can be actioned by an external event, by trigger
of the electrical contact.
Autoplay: This function is available on the NanoPlayer mkII; the player will automatically start playing the
selected files on powering on.
Broadcast mode: The way the files are organized and named on the SD/SDHC card fully defines the
broadcast mode. Digit codes inserted in file names and folder names provide powerful automation of
playback patterns.
Updating: By removing the SD/SDHC card from the player to transfer updates using a card reader on a
PC.
Audio output: Two audio outputs are available. Line level stereo output on standard 3.5 stereo Mini-jack
to connect the player onto a sound system and an amplified output on terminal block to connect directly
onto speakers. The ouput power is sufficient for several small to medium sized premises.
Power supply: The player is protected against polarity reversal. Caution, the NanoPlayer mkII accepts
variations between 10 and 15V. Outside this range, the player could be damaged.
Amplifier output power is determined by the power supply. When the line level output is used a 500mA
power supply unit (PSU) is enough to power the NanoPlayer mkII. If the integrated amplifier is used a 2A
(24W) power supply unit minimum is required. If the supply unit has insufficient power, sound will be very
poor quality and the power unit will heat up and eventually break down.
