ADT-GL18.
General Tips for Use with SD Card
For the 2001-2005 GL-1800, it usually works best to limit the # of folders to 5, plus the root, with no more than 45 files/tracks per
folder, using a 4Gb (max) SD card.
2006-2010 GL-1800s will support up to 8 folders, plus the root and up to 99 files/tracks per folder, using an SD card up to 8Gb in
size.
The included card reader/writer is not a thumb drive and is used only to load music into your SD card.
The suggested file format for music is MP3, while WMA can be used if the files/tracks are not protected.
If you are using iTunes, the music files will need to be converted to MP3 before they are loaded into the SD card or thumb drive.
When both an SD card and USB Flash Drive are inserted into the JMDM-GL18B, the SD card will be recognized first.
How to add MP3 or WMA files/folders to an SD Card or USB Thumb-Drive.
1. Connect your SD card to the computer by inserting the SD card into the supplied SD card reader/writer or simply plug your USB
Thumb Drive into the computer.
2. Click on Start and then My Computer.
3. Now find the SD card or USB thumb-drive (designated as Disk (I): in this example)
4. Click on the Removable Disk (I): and you should now have an open folder, this is also known as the Root Folder.
5. At this point Music can be added to the SD Card or USB Thumb-Drive. You will need to locate your MP3 or WMA files on your com-
puter.
6. To transfer music files from your computer to the SD Card or USB Thumb-Drive, drag and drop at least one track into this main root
folder. This main root folder must contain at least one MP3 file/track or the JMDM-GL18B will not play. This main root folder will be dis-
played as CD 1.7. For a more complex method of arranging and playing your music, move your music to the SD Card or USB Thumb-
Drive into specific folders. This main folder is called the Root folder and MUST CONTAIN AT LEAST ONE MP3 FILE OR THE JMDM-GL18
WLL NOT PLAY ANY MUSIC. NOTE: This main folder will be displayed as CD 1.
Additional folders can now be added to the root folder by clicking on (Top-Left) File, then New, then Folder.
For the 2001-2005 GL-1800, it usually works best to limit the # of folders to 5, plus the root, with no more than 45 files/tracks per
folder, using a 4Gb (max) SD card.
2006-2010 GL-1800s will support up to 8 folders, plus the root and up to 99 files/tracks per folder, using an SD card up to 8Gb in
size.
These folders can be named as you choose but these names will not display on the Honda Radio, only the CD Disk number will be
displayed. The MP3 files and folders will play in the actual order you have added them to the SD Card or USB thumb-drive, not by the
track number itself.
Here is an example of five folders with three MP3 files/tracks in the main root folder, as per the included SD card.
7. When you are finished loading the SD card or USB thumb-drive, unplug it from the computer, insert into the JMDM-GL18B and select
CD on the Honda audio system control panel.
The music will begin to play and is displayed as CD1. To change to the next folder press and hold the “Tune/Disc” up toggle for three
seconds and CD2 will begin to play. If you do not press and hold the “Tune/Disc” up/down toggle for the three seconds, the next track
will play in CD1 instead of the CD2 folder.
