Introduction
Welcome! Congratulations on purchasing the SG SERIES™ Advertising Display.
How often is it that you realize that you have got hundreds of photos trapped on your
PC or on your camera’s or telephone memory card and not knowing how to easily
display them? While some digital cameras let you view your pictures on a TV, they
usually requires a special cable and runs down the batteries; or you can view them on
your PC, but that means they are stuck in and with your PC. But now with the SG™ it
brings portable viewing pleasure to new heights.
The SG SERIES™ allows you to view your pictures on your kitchen counter, office
desk, car, boat, train - anywhere, everywhere. Simply insert your digital camera
memory card into the frame (it allows for different memory card formats--- and the
frame automatically displays the photos on its bright, colorful Crystal clear 8” LCD
screen. You can adjust the SG™ frame to display just one shot, or to cycle through all
the photos via the self-running “slideshow” mode. A handy, credit card-size remote
control lets you move forward or backward through your photos at will for added
convenience. And you can set the frame to use a variety of transitions between
photos (example, wipes, “window blinds” etc). Depending on the capacity of the
memory card, it is possible to view hundreds or even thousands of pictures & video
on the frame!
But that’s not all! Unlike most other digital picture display devices out there, the SG
SERIES™ can also play MP3 (music) files through its built-in speakers.
The frame can be easily configured to play MP3’s while simultaneously displaying
photos, alternatively it can either play MP3 files or display photos alone. The unit also
supports MPEG4, DivX and XviD movie formats for playback of digital camera movies
or movies created on your PC. USB connectivity makes file transfer fast and simple.
The audio can also be routed out through a standard AV jack to your computer
speakers or your home audio system. What’s more, you can also use the handy
video-out jack and included video cable to run a slideshow on your TV screen or
Screen projector.
So please take some time to read through this manual carefully in order to fully enjoy a
truly portable multi media viewing experience.
