1.2. Using the interfaces
The following descriptions focus on physical connection possibilities with Milestone 212.
1.2.1. Battery charging
Connect the provided charger to a power outlet. Connect the other end of the charger
cable to Milestone's mini-USB connector, located in the middle of the top side. A deep
beep indicates a correct connection, and the LED light on the operator surface begins to
blink every three seconds. Maximum charging time is 3 hours. Please be aware that a
connection to a computer via a USB cable also recharges the battery as long as the
computer remains on. You can find out the power level remaining in your battery through
"Information Service". Please see the relevant section below for details.
Milestone 212 is equipped with a powerful rechargeable lithium polymer battery. Maximum
playback duration is over 15 hours. Maximize playback time by listening to music and
books over headphones at medium volume and using standard reading speed. Please be
aware that using the integrated speaker requires more energy and thus reduces playback
time. The same applies to high reading rates, high volume and reading of text files.
1.2.2. Headphones
If you do not want to listen to Milestone 212 over the built-in speaker, simply plug in any
headphones to the standard 3.5 mm headphone input, located on the right bottom side of
the Milestone. The sound will then switch from the speaker to the headphones.
1.2.3. USB connection to the computer
Use the provided USB cable to connect Milestone 212 to a computer. Plug the smaller end
of the cable into the mini-USB connector, which is located in the center of the top side of
your Milestone 212. The bigger end connects to a standard USB connector on your
computer. Activation of the connection is signaled with the spoken message "Connection
activated" on your Milestone. Now you can transfer files such as books, music files, voice
messages, text files and more. More information please find under "Connection to a
computer". The USB 2.0 Hi-Speed port allows you quick transfer times, even for large data
files. As an added benefit, your Milestone's battery is being charged through an active
USB connection.
Attention: Please note that Milestone's keyboard is locked while in USB connection mode.
1.2.4. External microphones
There is a 3.5 mm jack on the right-hand side of the front edge. It can be used to connect
external microphones. More information on external microphones can be found under
"Voice recorder".
