    Overlook Voice recorders of the Edic-mini Tiny (16) + series are professional devices intended for making high quality record of voice messages into built-in flash memory. The recordings can be further uploaded onto the PC. These voice recorders feature really unique characteristics (the world's smallest size, maximum autonomy, high acoustic sensitivity etc).
  • Page 3 the preset time using timer. Due to the absence of removable elements the recorder is operational under wide temperature ranges when shaking or dusted. The LED indicates operating modes of the device as well as its status. The recorder is equipped with VAS enabling to compress pauses efficiently in messages therefore saving considerably the recorder's memory.
  • Page 4: Technical Characteristics

    Depending on the modification, recorders differ in: • Power source (battery, built-in rechargeable battery or battery + solar battery, external power supply) • Built-in memory capacity • The option to quickly replace the memory The user can upgrade the recorder's firmware via USB port.
  • Page 5: Installing And Replacing Batteries

    Recording Duration Recording duration depends on the type and quality of the battery in use, its charge level, and the record mode specified. Estimated duration for different modes is specified in Appendix 1. Installing and replacing batteries Before starting, install the supplied battery. The LED flashes 3 times and it will be on for about 40 sec.
  • Page 6: Start And Stop Recording

    Start and Stop Recording To start recording, set the Switch to «On». The LED flashes five times, and the recorder starts recording. During recording, the LED is flashing, the number of flashes indicating battery charge level (1 flash indicates charge of 80-100%, 2 flashes - 20-80%, 3 flashes indicate charge of 0-20%, which means the battery must be replaced or rechargeable battery charged) and free memory...
  • Page 7 Attention: • Avoid using the recorder with nearly discharged battery, otherwise it may turn off at the wrong moment. • The higher the record's sampling rate, the more energy is consumed by the recorder. At the frequency of 22 kHz the consumption is twice higher than at 8 kHz, and for the recorders with batteries the autonomy is down by more than three times.
  • Page 8 Playing Back and Uploading to the PC Use EMPlus program to play back and upload records onto the PC as well as to configure your recorder. SoundProcessor program is designed to process the transferred records and to facilitate the conversion of records to text. Both programs including the instructions are in the built-in memory of the recorder and operate under Windows XP (SP2, SP3) / Vista/7/8.

    Uploading from the B70 recorder For the model Tiny + B70 slide the recorder's cover with flash memory in the direction indicated by the arrow and slide it onto the USB adapter of B70. Then connect the adapter to the USB port of your computer.
  • Page 11: Setting Microphone Amplification For Tiny16

    Setting Microphone Amplification for Tiny16+ The recorder provides the option to adjust amplification of the microphone's signal (from 0 dB to +40 dB). Both fixed amplification and Automatic Gain Control can be set. AGC enables it to automatically adjust amplification according to the sound level.

    «free memory « in EMPlus and continuous operation time in Appendix 1. 2. When configuring Daily Timer you need to set record's start and end time. For example «start 09:20 stop 13:05» - with these settings the recorder starts recording every day at 9:20 and stops recording at 13:05.
  • Page 13 energy consumption from the power source. The principle of VAS is as follows: after user starts recording, recorder starts tracing signal from the microphone. If the signal is less than the one specified in settings (VAS level), it is not the sound from the microphone that is stored in memory, but only the time value during which the threshold hasn't been exceeded.
  • Page 14 the pauses are not saved, then the resulting record will consist of recorded parts only (signal exceeds the threshold). These parts will be played one after another without interruption. Configuring VAS Voice Activation System (VAS) is configured in the EMPlus program by changing two parameters: VAS threshold level and VAS time.
  • Page 15: Circular Recording

    If in case of silence, the recorder does not go to Signal Standby Mode and continues recording, VAS level is to be changed to be closer to zero (if it was -20 dB, now it should be set at -17 dB). If when desired signal appears the recorder does not go to Record Mode, the level of VAS should be changed to be closer to -55 dB (if it...

    to circular recording. After there is no more free memory, the recorder begins to record new data over old ones. The volume of the memory specified determines the duration of the resulting circular record. Charging and Battery Maintenance The battery starts charging automatically when you connect the recorder to the USB- port of the computer.
