(Windows 98 to Windows 7) with no special drivers.
With its power turned on, connect the PK-6000 to your PC or Macintosh and see it
mount in My Computer (PC) or on the Desktop (Mac). You can treat it like any other
external storage device, like a flash drive or hard drive, and add, rename, copy, move and
delete files.
You can also use the PK-6000 as a portable flash drive to take any type of computer file
from your work computer to home, for example.is will work as long as both computers
have USB ports and you have enough free memory (internally or on an installed
MicroSD card) on your PK-6000.
You do not need to store files in special folders or directories, as each function on the PK-
6000 (Karaoke, Video,Text Reader, etc.) will scan the memory, internally and in the SD
card slot, for the files that it is capable of playing.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
1. Why am I not able to record sounds while playing video files in MIDI and AVI
formats in the Karaoke menu? Files in MIDI and AVI format occupy more resources even
when sound recording is disabled.
2. Why do I hear airflow and wind sounds when I’m singing? Please keep your mouth
at least several inches from the microphone or test the mic at different angles to find the best
solution.
3. Why is the volume of the microphone sometimes too low? e volume of the microphone
is adjustable, so set it according to your own preferences.
4. Why does the PK-6000 get hot after playing for a while (especially when FM
transmission is on)? When working at full capacity the unit consumes lots of power. It is
normal for the player to get hot, like a cell phone that heats up after a long period of use.
5. Why does the player say that there is “No file” when the memory is full? ere are
actually too many files on the device when the memory is completely full. e PK-6000 requires
time and memory space to create its database, so deleting files that are not needed and reserving
20 MB of free space will help the player run smoothly.
6. Why does the player copy files (folders) very slowly when several windows are open
simultaneously, versus quickly when running one window at a time? Most PC normally
react more slowly when copying files between or among several open windows simultaneously.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
(39)
erefore, take separate steps to save the music files in one folder and, after that, copy the folder to
the PK-6000.
7. Why doesn’t the player start? Please check whether the battery is installed properly and
whether it is fully charged. You should press and hold the power key for at least five (5) seconds to
turn on the PK-6000.
8. Why it is difficult to calibrate the touch screen or enter the Main Interface after
turning on the player? (a) e stylus doesn’t click the center of the cross; (b) the display area of
the touch screen may be covered; (c) the touch setting file TOUCH.DAT of another player may be
copied to this player (delete the TOUCH.DAT from the player when connected via USB to your
PC); and/or (d) the player may be infected by a virus (terminate the virus, update the program
then format the player). Please refer to the CD or Acesonic site for updated firmware and files.
9. Why is the FM transmission function disabled when TV-out function is enabled, and
TV-out function disabled when FM transmission is enabled? If the TV-out function plus
FM emission function are activated simultaneously then the battery duration will be negatively
affected. Follow all instructions in order to conserve battery power and ensure the expected level
of performance.
10. Why do certain frequencies work better than others when the FM transmission
function is enabled? When the transmission function is enabled, the player will detect the FM
radio environment and the PK-6000 will alert you if interference is detected. By selecting a
different frequency it will eliminate interference with other electronic devices. On the receiver,

software provided on the included CD to ensure proper encoding and conversion.

Troubleshooting and Help
Some downloaded files in the WMA format cannot be played.
Music of various formats is now available online. Among the most popular are WMA
(Windows Media Audio) files. Some music in the WMA format is protected by
the copyright safeguard features of the DRM (Digital Rights Management) license.
Unauthorized playing is not allowed by DRM, which protects the interests of the
copyright owner. Some Web sites do provide WMA format music files without DRM
protection, and like music in the MP3 format it can be freely copied and played. If
you obtain DRM-protected WMA files for use with Windows Media Player (a free
streaming utility provided by Microsoft that can be downloaded from many Web sites),
you will be unable to copy it to or play it on a computer or a other digital player without
the license.is means of preventing the spread of music and protecting the interest of
copyright owners has been abandoned by iTunes and many other content providers.
KSC lyrics behave differently.
KSC lyrics are specially prepared to be in strict synchronization with the melody of the
music file with the same title.
Some lyrics are not displaying correctly or at all.
KSC file names must be identical with the MP3 file names or lyrics can not be displayed
when playing (since no lyrics with the same title can be found).
