You can transfer files to your Lyra Recorder via Windows Explorer on My Computer.
If your Lyra Recorder isn’t already connected to your computer, connect the Lyra Recorder to the computer using the provided Mini-USB cable as
illustrated on page 14.
Note: Do not disconnect the USB cable while files are being transferred (downloaded) to the Lyra Recorder. Doing so may corrupt
system files or the files being downloaded.
In Windows Explorer, when the device is opened in MTP mode, and Windows Media Player 10 is installed, “Data” and “Media” views will be displayed for
the device.
The Data View is used to manage data content on the device, such as text files. The Media View is used to manage media content supported by the device
for playback, such as audio and video files.
You can copy files to / delete files from the device through Windows Explorer, but you cannot open or edit the files directly from the device. If you want to
edit files currently stored on your device, you will need to copy the files from the device to another location (drive) in the system.
