storage cards directly from almost all popular digital cameras.
Computer connection. Built in serial (RS-232, RS-422 compatible) interface
allows you to connect Digi-Frame™ to your personal computer
(Windows® or Macintosh®) to transfer images to and from the comput-
er. Download your favorite pictures from E-mail or the Internet and store

at any time.
Large, bright color display. DF-390 has 3.9" active-matrix color LCD capa-
ble of displaying thousands of colors. Contrast is user-adjustable.
Automatic orientation sensor. Your pictures will be rotated automatically
as you tilt the frame between landscape (wide) and portrait (tall) modes.
Orient the frame to suit the majority of pictures on your storage card,
and the remaining pictures will be rotated automatically so they appear
the right way up.
Programmable slideshows. Assemble your own slideshows (up to ten dif-
ferent slideshows on each memory card) and show your pictures in any
order you want. Simply select images from a list of thumbnails on the
card. Each slideshow can have its own different pictures, transitions, slide
intervals, effects, etc. During the slideshow you can pause or resume
and manually skip forwards or backwards. The interval between slides is
programmable in ten-second increments up to ten minutes. Further
enhance your slideshows with our variety of selectable transition effects.
Savable slideshow. The DF-390 will save your slideshow preferences to
your CompactFlash™ or SmartMedia™ card allowing you to make indi-
vidual cards with different shows that can be changed as easily as the
swap of a card.
Instant start. Insert your card full of images, turn on the Digi-Frame™, and
it will immediately begin a cycling slideshow of all available pictures,
with no user interaction necessary.

needing a wall outlet.

Ways to use your Digi-Frame™
Your Digi-Frame™ can be used in a variety of ways:
Camera Images Direct to Digi-Frame™:
This is the simplest way to use your Digi-Frame™. Take a picture with your dig-
ital camera, remove the memory card from the camera, insert it into your Digi-
Frame™, and view your pictures.
E-mail Images:
When you receive a picture via e-mail, most programs allow you to save the
image file to your computer's hard disk. If the image is visible on your com-
puter screen, you can often save the image file by clicking and holding the
mouse on the image on Macintosh® computers, or by right-clicking on com-
puters running Windows®. This usually brings up a pop-up menu allowing
you to save the image file. If the image file is contained in an attachment to
the e-mail, there is usually a button or link that requires only clicking once. In
AOL, this is the "Download Now" button. Once the image file is saved to your
hard disk, use Digi-Link™ to send it to your Digi-Frame™ for viewing. It can be
saved onto any memory card inserted into your Digi-Frame™.
Internet Images:
Images found on many websites can be saved to your hard disk and then
downloaded to your Digi-Frame™ in the same way as e-mail images.
Camera Images to PC and then to Digi-Frame™:
Many digital camera users will want to take advantage of their personal com-
puter's power, memory, and user interface to organize and archive their pho-
tos and other images. Many excellent software programs provide facilities for
doing this. Images can be transferred from the camera to the computer by a
serial connection (RS232, U SB, or FireWire™) or by use of a card-reader
peripheral. After editing, transfer the images to your Digi-Frame™ using Digi-
Link™ or a card reader.
Storing Your Images on Memory Cards for Digi-Frame™ Viewing:
Memory cards provide a quick and simple way of storing groups of photos for
instant viewing on your Digi-Frame™. Once images are saved on your hard
disk, they can be organized into groups for display on your Digi-Frame™ as
pre-loaded slideshows. Images can be transferred to memory cards either by
sending them to the Digi-Frame™ with Digi-Link™ or by writing them onto a
memory card with a card reader peripheral. The latter is faster. You could save,
for instance, all your photos for one year on one memory card, or all photos of
a special event. When you want to show your vacation pictures to a friend you
can simply retrieve the "Vacation Pictures" memory card and pop it in your
Digi-Frame™ for instant viewing!
Collecting and Viewing Digi-Frame™ Pre-Loaded Image Cards:
Digi-Frame Inc. will offer collections of pre-loaded images on memory cards. If
you get tired of your own photos, pop in a card of great works of art, profes-
sionally-photographed landscapes, sports heroes, you name it! The image col-
lections will also be available for purchase via download from our website.
Check our website or your retailer for availability information.
