4.1.Gettingstartedwiththelibrary
The first time you open the library, you must scan the
internal memory. This will help the system extract
metadata,addbookstothecatalogueandsortthem.To
launchthisprocedure,presstheSCANLIBRARYbutton.
Eachtimeyourecordordeletebooksfromthememoryof
thedeviceitisnecessarytolaunchthescanmanuallyto
refreshthelibrary.
4.2.Sortingandfiltering
Inthe library,booksaregroupedbyauthors,series and
titles (for each group the number of items in it is dis‑
played).Withinthesegroupstheitemsaresortedalpha‑
betically(intheseriesbooksaresortedbytheirnumbersin
theseries),forauthorsandseriesthenumberofbooksis
indicated. The items beginning with digits or without a
namearelocatedattheendofthelist.
Onthemainpageofthelibraryitispossibletosetthefilter
bylanguage,genre,text,dateofthebook’spublicationand
dateoffilecreation.
Aftersettingthefilterinthegroups“Authors”,“Series”,
“Titles” books will be displayed by their corresponding
filterparameters.
10
background
The“Text”filterallowstheusertosortbooksbyapartof
thetitle,thenameoftheauthororbyapartoftheseries
name.Forthisfilteringitisnecessarytoenteratleasttwo
letters.Iftheenteredtextiscontainedinthenameofthe
element(titleofabookorofseries,nameoftheauthor),
this element and all the elements related to it will be
selected.Forexample,ifthesearchedtextiscontainedin
thenameoftheseries,thissameserieswillbeshownin
the“Series”groupafterfiltering,inthe“Authors”group–
authors from this series, in the “Titles” group – all the
books from this series, even though the names of the
authorsandthebooktitlesdonotcontaintheenteredtext.
The“Clearall”optionclearsallthefilterparameters.If
youwanttoclearonlyoneofthefilters,gotothecorre‑
spondingfilterandchoose“Clear”orerasethetextinthe
“Text”filter.
