Hi
The RNIB talking book service have just sent me a new Victor Reader Classic
which arrived yesterday. There is something strange going on, and I wondered
if anyone had had this problem. Of course I can call the RNIB on Monday but if
this can be remedied by a firmware update or something like that, then I can do
that.
It seems as though the machine is not recognising mains power. If I connect
the adapter to the product, and hold down the top lefthand key, I am advised
that battery power is enabled. This came to my attention because I was
listening to a book yesterday evening, and the machine kept saying "mains power
on mains power off", the second announcement immediately preceeding the first.
However, if I leave the machine connected to the electricity for a few hours,
then disconnect it, I can get a good couple of hours out of the battery without
any problem, indicating that it may have been charged.
As I say, has anyone else had this problem please?
