Solo Mini supplies a nominal 5V at 500mA, but not all 
USB devices can be guaranteed to work with the unit 
due to the lack of standardisation of USB devices on the 
market. USB hard disc drives are not supported by this 
connection. 
Note that USB devices are physically vulnerable when 
connected. Take care not to knock or dislodge the device 
from its socket. 
iPod connection
The combination of Solo Mini and Arcam’s rDock (or 
rLead) provides a great platform for your iPod. 
Connect the rDock as shown, power on the rDock, slot 
in your iPod and select iPod as the source.
Navigating through music and podcasts on your iPod is 
simple using the Solo remote, with text appearing on the 
Solo Mini display.
More information is given in the rDock quick start 
guide or (rLead quick start guide) supplied with these 
accessory units.
