Make selections on the wallbox and instantly your songs are played, one by one, in the order received. Same way as it was back in the 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's. Any number of the same wallbox models can be connected to the player. Setup is easy, create folders (or playlists) on your memory card, store the wallbox song files in the folder, program your wallbox type and your ready to go. The Background Music feature allows non-stop music play when all wallbox song selections have been played. From the wireless remote, you can choose the starting play from any folder and song number. Up to 100 folders (00 to 99) each having up to 100 songs (00 to 99) provide remote access for up to 10,000 songs. Background song plays auto-increment through all song files and folders and also remembers the next song to play at each power-up. A new wallbox selection can be programmed to either cancel the current background play or wait until the end of the background song before playing the selections. A 6-foot stereo RCA cable provide the "line-out" signal for your external amplifier or you can connect to a set of amplified speakers. The wireless remote is used to control volume level, pause or cancel song play. The MP3 player supports all MPEG layer-iii encodings at fixed and variable bit-rates up to and including 320 kbits/s. A 24-bit DAC provides 96dB of audio dynamic range. The player works with any FAT32 formatted Compact Flash memory card which is compatible with Windows, Mac, Linux and other systems.

2 Compact Flash Memory Card Line-Out Audio (RCA plugs) Activity LED's Wireless Remote Sensor Player Board LED Power Supply WB-MP3 Wallbox Player System 2-wire Wallbox Connection OPERATION When the WB-MP3 unit is powered-up, the red and green activity LED's will turn on and remain on until the player board completes the song scan initialization. This may take a few seconds if a large number of songs are on the Compact Flash memory card. Afterwards, the green LED turns off and the red LED "fast blinks" indicating the player is ready. If the red and green LED's remain on for more than a minute, a problem was encountered and can usually be identified by counting the player board LED blinks for the error code (See Troubleshooting chart for error code detail). The WB-MP3 player is programmed from the wireless remote. All programming is stored in memory and will not be erased when powered off. A program operation consists of entering three numeric digits followed by the Channel down button. As each button is pressed, the green LED should flash in response. If it doesn't, you may not be in TV mode or the remote needs the setup code (See wireless remote functions). In this example, we will program the wallbox type as Seeburg model 3W1 which will be powered at 60Hz line frequency. On the remote, press the following; CH- The red and green LED's should be on to indicate the WB-MP3 is waiting for the wallbox type number. Press 3 on the remote for Seeburg 3W1. The two LED's will turn off when program is completed. Why is line frequency so important? Because the wallbox motor is frequency sensitive and will run slower at 50Hz which causes longer wallbox pulse signals. As a result, the song played may not be the one selected. Make a selection on the wallbox, you should see the green LED flashing as the pulses are received from the wallbox. The selected song will play. As more wallbox selections are made, they are stored in memory, waiting to be played. Background music is played whenever there are no wallbox selections to play. It is turned on by pressing Channel Up and turned off pressing Channel Down. Press On/Off to cancel song play and the next sequential song will start. You can "jump" to any song position by entering a four digit Folder/Song number. The current song will be canceled and the new song started. If the entered song number is not found, the WB-MP3 will sequentially search for the next available song.

3 CHECKING THE COMPACT FLASH CARD FORMAT Before using your Compact Flash card, check the file system. It will either be FAT or FAT32. Plug in your USB Compact Flash reader/writer. After a few moments, the computer should indicate that the flash card is ready. Click My Computer Right click on the Compact Flash drive letter Then click on Properties The File system should be FAT32 If it isn t, then re-format the Compact Flash card. Click My Computer Right click on the Compact Flash drive letter Then click on Format Select the FAT32 File system then click Start When the WARNING message appears Click OK USB 2.0 Reader/Writer CF Card

4 CREATING FOLDERS / DRAG & DROP YOUR MP3 FILES Songs selected from the wallbox are translated into a folder and song number selection on the Compact Flash card. The first 100 wallbox selections (50 title strips) play from folder number 01, additional selections play from folder 02. Each of the folders can have up to 100 song files, numbered 00 to 99. The sequential title strip selections from the wallbox are matched to these sequential song file numbers. Background music sequentially plays all song files in all folders from 00 to 99. You can jump to any starting song position by entering a 4-digit song number from the remote. The first two digits are the folder number and the last two digits are the song number within that folder. You do not need to have 100 songs in every folder, background play automatically searches for available songs. To create a new folder Double click on the Compact Flash drive letter Then click File New Folder You should see a New Folder name. Change the name The first two letters are numeric digits that identify the folder position. You would need 01 and possibly 02 for your wallbox selections. You can create additional folders for your background music. Any letters following these two digits are ignored and can be any text you choose. As shown above, folder numbers are used to identify a group of song files. Here, MP3 song names must also be numbered to identify their position within that group. Using Windows Explorer, you can drag & drop selected song files to your Compact Flash card. Select the disk and folder for your source of MP3 song files, place your mouse over the song then hold down the left mouse button and drag it to your Compact Flash folder. If you need to change or add the selection position number of a song, place the mouse over the song then right click and select Rename. MP3 song files can be changed at any time, simply delete the old file and insert the new one.

5 SONG NUMBERS ARE MATCHED TO THE TITLE STRIP SEQUENCE Up to two folders are used for wallbox song selections, folder "01" contains the first 100 songs and folder "02" the next 100 songs. Song numbers are assigned to match the title strip selection sequence, that is, the first two songs from folder "01" for the very first title strip, next two songs for the next title strip and so on. After the first 100 songs, which are used by the first 50 title strips, folder "02" contains the songs for the remainder of title strips. This makes it easier to build-up your wallbox songs as you go along.

7 TROUBLESHOOTING Symptom After the WB-MP3 is powered up, the red and green LED's are continuously on. The green LED is continuously on. When selections are made on the wallbox, no songs are played. After a wallbox selection was made, the wrong song was played. The red LED is slow blinking, but there is no sound. No operation from the wireless remote. Player board LED error codes. 1 blink, pause, 1 blink... 2 blinks, pause, 2 blinks... 3 blinks, pause, 3 blinks... 4 blinks, pause, 4 blinks... 5 blinks, pause, 5 blinks... Possible Cause The Compact Flash card format is not FAT32. No folders or song files were found on the CF card. Check the player board LED, it may be flashing an error code. The wallbox signal is always on (wallbox stuck or defective). Unplug the wallbox connector to verify. Wrong wallbox type was selected. No wallbox signal is being received. (verify green LED blinks) Touch a 9-volt battery to wallbox wires, verify green LED blink. The song selection was not found, check the CF memory card. Wrong wallbox type was selected. Wallbox signal is erratic. (see TECH NOTE below) Verify song selections are correct on the CF memory card. Volume level is set low, press remote volume up button. Check the player board LED, it should also be slow blinking. Check for audio using headphone or ear bud on line-out cable. Batteries low or reprogram remote control setup code. Hold volume button and check player board LED fast blinks. Press CH- and check for green LED flash. System Error (Make sure CF memory card is inserted correctly). Format Error (Make sure CF memory card has FAT32 format). No Folders (Make sure you have created folders on CF card). No MP3 Files (No folders inside folders & files must be MP3). Memory Card Error (Player received error status from CF card). TECH NOTE Electrical pulses transmitted by the wallbox are generated by a contact arm rotating on a selector disc containing contact points. When these contacts become gummed up and corroded, the wallbox may not make the proper selection. Occasionally, these contacts require cleaning. They can be cleaned with a cloth saturated with isopropyl alcohol. Do not use emery cloth or sandpaper as this may remove the plating. On really worn wallboxes, where basic cleaning doesn t seem to cure the problem, you may have successful results by using a low abrasive polish, such as Scratch Out or Brasso. This will make the contact surfaces shiny and smooth. Wallbox Wiring Diagrams CAUTION: Do not attempt to hook up a wallbox power supply if you are not familiar with electrical wiring, consult with a qualified person or an electrician. Do not leave any wires exposed, always use wire-nuts or electrical tape on all connections. Improper wiring can result in a fire or shock hazard.
