Introduction Congratulations on your new Smartparts SyncPix™ digital picture frame! SyncPix™ frames include revolutionary technology that makes transferring photos from a memory card to the frame virtually effortless. Your new picture frame does some amazing things. It will automatically: • Detect when a memory card is inserted.
Getting Started To begin using your SyncPix™ digital picture frame, start by connecting the stand or hanging the frame on a wall. The stand is connected by inserting the round knob at the top into the opening on the back of the frame and sliding it upward. The display angle of the frame can be adjusted by sliding the stand up or down.
Copying Photos from a Memory Card One of the key features of your SyncPix™ digital picture frame is the ability to copy photos from a memory card to the frame’s built-in memory automatically. This allows you to put your card back into your camera and continue taking pictures while the digital frame displays your photos.
IMPORTANT: The photos on the digital picture frame have a lower resolu- tion than your originals. They should not be considered backup copies of your originals. Do not delete your original photos from your memory card until you have backed them up to another type of storage medium, such as a computer hard drive.
Video Clips Your SyncPix™ digital picture frame will play video clips from many types of digital cameras. The videos will play during the slide show. No special video mode is required. Best results are obtained with QVGA resolution (320x240). Adding Background Music to a Slideshow Your SyncPix™...
SyncPix™ Settings From the albums screen, use the Menu button to highlight the Settings icon, and then press OK. Use the up and down arrow buttons to navigate to a setting, and the left and right buttons to change the setting. After making any changes, you must select OK for the changes to take effect.
Volume The volume of background music and video clips can be set between 0 and 15. Note that volume also can be adjusted with the use of the + and – buttons on the remote control. However, if the remote control is not available, the volume must be adjusted here.
Note: Photos transferred manually with a USB cable will not be optimized for use with the frame. We recommend copying photos and other media to your frame by means of inserting a memory card into the appropriate slot. Folders Your SyncPix™ digital picture frame’s internal memory has folders in which pictures, music and video clips are stored.
Frequently Asked Questions: Q: What should I do if the digital picture frame does not respond to the buttons on the remote control or on the frame? A: If your digital picture frame seems unresponsive, please wait several seconds to allow it to process your request. If it still does not respond, turn the unit off and restart it.

Q: Do I need a computer to copy music and videos to the frame’s internal memory. A: No. If the music and video files are stored on a memory card or USB flash drive, SyncPix™ will copy them to the built-in memory along with any photos.

Cleaning the LCD Screen Treat the screen gently. The screen is made of glass and can be scratched or broken. To clean fingerprints or dust from the LCD screen, we recommend using a soft, non-abrasive cloth such as a camera lens cloth. If you use a commercial LCD Cleaning Kit, do not apply the cleaning liquid directly to the LCD screen.
