Hardware Instructions
The PJB-100 requires a computer with Windows 98/2000 or MacOS and USB port
The software supplied is capable of converting audio CD data into MP3 files and download those files directly to the hard disk drive of the PJB-100. This procedure prevents the use of the hard disk drive in your computer and does therefore not require large amounts of disk space. The data of one audio CD can be transferred within 10 to 15 minutes.
With this software you can also copy MP3 files, which are located on your computer's hard disk drive (downloaded from the Internet) to the PJB-100. It takes approx. 15 seconds to download a 4 minute MP3 song to the PJB-100.

The software for the Personal Jukebox PJB-100 (included)
Before you start the software "Personal Jukebox" on your computer you have to connect the PJB-100 to the computer and switch it on. This is necessary to allow for the data transfer. After you have finished the above procedure you will see the following screen...
The user interface of the software is very similar to Windows-Explorer and therefore easy to use. If you would like to save your Audio CD songs as MP3 files on the PJB-100's hard disk drive you chose the menu "Jukebox" and then the command "Capture CD-Audio". The music files will be transferred directly from the CD to the hard disk drive of the PJB-100. This means the hard disk drive of the computer will not be used for temporary storage.
If you would like to transfer music files from the computer's hard disk drive to the PJB-100 you just select the folder of your choice and the contents will appear under "Track Name".
The CDDB-Mode allows you to name your CD and songs automatically within seconds . Press the button "Title" and the program searches the informations from the web. Further information about this can be found at http://www.cddb.com .
Only one click on the "OK" button is necessary to start the transfer of the songs ...

T.O.C. Error Message.
Usually this is caused by a bad track (zero time). You should be able
to connect to the PJB and delete the offending track.Try looking at the last tracks you added.
The Jukebox does not react at all:
Use procedures 2-4 mentioned in the section “Error messages”.
"TOC is malformed, save a new one..."
This recipe will enable "Test Mode" in the Jukebox manager, and will rebuild the allocation map section of the TOC by scanning the allocated blocks on disc. It assumes that the Set/Disc/Track section of the TOC is correct.
1. Be sure that the Jukebox manager software is installed and can communicate with your PJB.
2. Be sure that the Jukebox manager is NOT running.
3. With your favorite registry editor (e.g. regedit under Windows 98), navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Personal Jukebox\Jukebox Manager\Settings
4. Click with the right mouse button on Settings and create a new "DWORD" which you have to overwrite with "SRC". Double click on the symbol before "SRC" and enter the value 1 and hexadecimal.
5. Quit from the registry editor, and run the Jukebox Manager. In the Jukebox Manager, click "Preferences" on the Jukebox menu.
6. In the preferences dialog, use the "Test Mode" tab, check the "Enable Test Mode" box, then click "OK" to save the change. Your Jukebox manager now has a "Test" menu.
7. If your PJB isn't already connected and selected in the Jukebox Manager, do that now.
8. Verify that your PJB has a reasonably fully charged battery, and/or is connected to an external power source (preferably both).
9. From the Test menu, use "Extract TOC" to make a backup copy of your PJB's existing TOC (e.g. as c:\mypjb.toc).
10. Finally, click "Rebuild Map" on the Test menu.
This takes quite a long time to run; it's scanning the entire disk. If this runs successfully, just save the changed TOC in the usual way (click "Save Changes" on the Jukebox menu).
Diagnostic-tests
The firmware 2.3.2 includes a few diagnostic-tests that can be useful for fixing some problems. This tests can check memory, firmware, harddisk and buttons. To get into the menu, turn the PJBox off and start it by pressing "down" + "left" (hold them about 3 sec.).
