ARCHOS Productivity Games Settings Documents
The PMA430’s interface is partitioned into five main application sets, or tabs. You can change
from one tab to another by clicking on the tab itself with the stylus (the PMA430’s screen is touch
sensitive), clicking the Home button
, or by selecting it from the Qtopia™ menu, on the
bottom left of the screen (see image on the right hand side).
Pocket AV Tab
From this tab, you can launch the music playing and recording applications, the video playing and
recording applications, the photo viewing application, the file management application, and a
resume playing application.
Productivity Applications Tab

10
From this tab, you can launch applications such as E-mail, an Internet browser, a calendar, agenda,
contacts, and others.
Games
A number of games have been included with your device. Further, there is a Mophun® game
engine found in the games tab. This is a special game playing platform. You can check the
ARCHOS website for a list of available games to purchase.
Settings
This tab gives you access to the parameters which control the operation of your PMA430. They
include the clock and calendar, the interface language, a security password, and your network
parameters which allow you for example to use the built-in Wifi capabilities to connect to a
network and access the Internet.
Documents
This tab corresponds to the Documents folder which is the top level of the file hierarchy system
and where you will keep all your working documents. It displays all of your files that are located
in the Documents folder and its subfolders. On the bottom left, you can choose to show “All
Documents” (that is, all files) or select a certain file type (for example images or text files only).
Pease note that keeping a large amount of files in this folder can slow down the PMA430 or result
in messages such as “Memory Low” or “Memory Critical”, so you might want to consider creating
a folder (e.g. named “Data”) in the root directory of the PMA 430 to store the files you do not
access frequently.
1.4
The Touch Screen and Text Input
The PMA430 is equipped with a tactile screen. You can lightly press on it with your finger or use
the included stylus in order to launch an application or to interact with a program. There are three
methods to enter text or numbers into your PMA430 when an application calls for textual
information. If you need to enter text, click on the text entry button (1) and then choose your text
entry method (2).
(2)
(1)
Method: Handwriting Recognition
You write your characters on the screen itself. You have to write your letters in a particular way in
order for the PMA430 to identify them correctly. The training tutorial (circled question mark on
the right of the input screen) will demonstrate to you how this is to be done, and will give you the
opportunity to train yourself.
Method: Keyboard
A standard keyboard is displayed
and you simply tap on the keys.
Method: Telephone
Enter text as if you are using a
telephone number pad. Click once
for the first letter, twice for the
second letter and so on.
1.5
Linux®, Qtopia™ and the PMA430 File System
Your PMA430 runs on the Linux® operating system. This version of Linux®
however does not include all of the libraries needed to run, on say, a desktop
computer. It is a lean version.
Qtopia™ is the graphic layer on Linux® that
allows for a comfortable graphic user
interface instead of the traditional Linux®
command line input.
The hard drive of your PMA430
is
partitioned as FAT32, a file system used
also on Windows® based computers. A
small part of it is set aside as a storage space
for additional applications. These
two
spaces are called Media Storage and
Program Storage respectively. The Media Storage, is where all of your music, videos, photos, and
any miscellaneous data files will be stored. When you connect your PMA430 to your computer via
the USB cable, it will appear as an external hard drive. Thus, you can very easily move files
between your PC and your PMA430 by opening the PMA430 in Windows® Explorer and
dragging and dropping files.
11
12
The Program storage area (64MB fixed size) is where new Linux® programs that you install onto
your PMA430. Because Linux® applications need to run in a Linux® formatted space, the
installation packages (file type .ipk) must be installed into the Program Storage area. You will
notice that when your device is mounted onto a PC as an external hard drive (or mass storage
device), there is a 64MB file in the System folder called progfs.img. This stands for program file
space and is actually a simulated Linux® partition for your application programs. You should
therefore not delete this file/partition. In case that you need to do an entire system recovery
procedure, you should backup the progfs.img file to save all of your installed programs. After
completing the recovery procedure, you can then recover your programs by replacing this file.
1.6
Updating the Operating System
ARCHOS periodically updates the Operating System (OS) and makes available a free download
on the ARCHOS website (www.archos.com). Updates to the Operating System include new
features, feature improvements, and bug fixes. You should check to make sure that you are
running the most recent version of the OS. You can find information on the current version you
are running under Applications > System Info > Version. The most recent version available can
be dowloaded at www.archos.com under the heading Download > Software.
Step 1 Download the file aimage.img
Download the image file AIMAGE.IMG , which will probably be quite large – approximately 22
MB. (Note that over a telephone modem, downloading a file of this size will take at least an hour
and a half and possibly several hours.) When you click on the link to download the new OS file,
your browser may warn you that the contents of the download may harm your computer. This is
because the Windows® system does
not know what an .IMG file is. Be
assured that ARCHOS has made
every effort to ensure that the file
does not contain viruses. Click on
the Save button to download this
file to a convenient place, such as
My Documents, in order to later
copy this file to your PMA430. If
your PMA430 is connected to your
PC, you can even save it directly to
the System folder in your PMA430.
ATTENTION Macintosh® Users
Macintosh® users should be especially careful when they download and save this file to their
Macintosh® computer. Do not double-click on it. Macs use .img files for a different purpose and
if you double click on this saved .img, it will try to open it. Instead, simply copy it from your
Macintosh to your PMA430’s System folder. Just drag and drop.
Step 2. Read the History.txt File
On the ARCHOS website, you will also find next to the OS download, a text file which details the
list of changes from the previous version of the OS.
Step 3. Copy the aimage.img file to the PMA430 System Folder
Connect your PMA430 to your computer and then copy the AIMAGE.IMG file to the System
folder of the PMA430. Since there will be an older version of this file on your PMA430 already,
your computer will ask if you want to overwrite the current file. Click on Yes. Once this file is
copied, safely disconnect the PMA430 from the computer.
Attention: The aimage.img must always remain in the System folder of the PMA430. Even once
you have updated your PMA430, you must not remove that file.
Step 4 Reset the PMA430 and set the time and date
In order for the new software update to take
effect, you need to reset the PMA430. Disconnect
it from the computer and go to Settings >
Shutdown. Press the red “Reboot” button. The
PMA430 will turn off. Turn it back on now and it
will boot up the new operating system. You
should check to verify that the clock time and date
are correct after a reset.
13
14
1.7
Changing the Language
2 Connecting/Disconnecting the PMA430 to/from your PC
The PMA430 interface can be set to English (default), French, German, Italian, or Spanish. To
change the language, go to Settings then Language and select your desired language. Click OK
and wait a few moments. Your PMA430 will now use the new language.
1.8
Caring for the PMA430
The ARCHOS Video PMA430 is an electronic product that needs to be treated with great care.
• Do not subject it to shock.
• Do not subject it to heat. Keep it ventilated (especially when connected to a computer).
• Keep the PMA430 away from water and excessively humid areas.
• Keep the PMA430 away from high electromagnetic fields.
• Keep any connected cords to the PMA430 neatly arranged. This light product could fall
if a cable is accidentally pulled.
• Do not open up the PMA430. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Opening will
void your warranty.
1.9
Hardware Reset
In the event that your PMA430 freezes operation (due to
electrostatic phenomena for example), you can actuate a hardware
(cold) reset by placing a narrow object such as a paper clip into the
reset hole and pressing on the recessed reset button.
Note that when the PMA430 is connected to a computer, it will consume more energy, that is to
say, the battery will discharge faster than usual. If the PMA430 looses power while connected to
your computer you could damage your directory structure and/or loose data. Thus, you should
always use the AC adapter when connected to your computer. Be also careful to understand the
disconnection procedure since disconnecting incorrectly can lead to data loss or cause the
computer/PMA430 to freeze. The PMA430 is not compatible with Windows® NT, Windows® 95,
or Windows® 98. While connected as a hard disk to your computer, the PMA430 buttons are
blocked and are no longer functional.
2.1
Connecting the PMA430
1) Use the power adapter to prevent the PMA430 from shutting off due to low power.
(This could cause damage to the contents of the hard disk if not done.)
2) Plug the USB cable into your running computer.
3) Turn on the PMA430 – wait until it completely boots up.
4) Plug the other end of cable into your now running PMA430.
Windows® ME, 2000, XP (Home/professional)
When connected, the PMA430 will be recognized
as a Mass Storage Class (MSC) Device and display
automatically within a few seconds of being
connected. You will see a new drive letter, such as
E: in My Computer called PMA400. You can now
use the hard disk called PMA400 like any other
hard disk. Simply access it using Windows®
Explorer to drag and drop files to and from the
PMA430’s hard drive. If it is not automatically
recognized, please refer to the troubleshooting
section at the back of this manual.
