Player Unit Capabilities

Floppy Disk Playback

All VIP playback units accept floppy disks created using the VIP
Composer software. The VIP unit displays the pages found on the
floppy in the order specified as part of your VIP Composer project.
Normally, the process is as simple as inserting a floppy disk and
letting the unit automatically take over. Additionally, you can
manually control display of pages using the remote control.
The number of pages that can fit on a single floppy disk will vary
depending on the complexity and quality of those images, but
typically you can expect to fit 30 pages on a disk.

Serial Transfer

All VIP units can be updated using a serial cable connected to a PC,
instead of needing a floppy disk for transfer.
If you intend to use the serial port, you must use a VIP Serial
Cable from MagicBox, Inc. Use of other cables which may
seem to fit, such as Macintosh serial cables or S-Video
cables, could damage the VIP unit. Such damage is not
covered by warranty.
Because no floppy disk is used, it's available storage space is not a
limitation. Instead, the approximate number of images that can be
included in a project varies depending on the memory available in
the VIP model you have:
VIP1 – "VIP Base"
VIP2 – "VIP Express"
VIP3 – "VIP Plus"
VIP4 – "VIP Plus Express"
