PREPARING THE DATAPACK (CONTENT FOLDER)

Before programming the content in the KULUMI devices, the Datapack must be specifically prepared.

1. KULUMI MINI:

KULUMI MINI has 3 levels of navigation:

Root Folders (Top buttons), Sub Folders (Middle buttons), Files in the Sub Folders (Bottom buttons)

Step 1: Create a Datapack folder on your computer

The Datapack folder is the content folder that will contain all the folders and MP3 files that you want to load into the KULUMI units. Here, it’s on desktop and named “MINI DATAPACK”

Step 2: Create Main folders inside your Datapack

Double click on “MINI DATAPACK”. You can have as many main folders as you want. Here I only made 3 main folders (NT, Songs and Stories). Make sure to start with 01, 02, 03, 04…..10, 11 etc…. Download our Mac_Exclude txt file and HTGv4 command file right under your main folders. These 2 files will ensure that your MP3 files will be copied in the correct order. To download the txt and cmd files, click here

Step 3: Create Sub-folders

Double click on main folder “01 New Testament” and create sub-folders. Here I did only 4 (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) You can have as many sub-folders as you want. Make sure to start with 01, 02, 03, 04…..10, 11 etc….  IMPORTANT: If you don’t make sub-folders, the audio files will not play. 

Step 4: Paste in your MP3 files

Double click on Sub-folder “01 Matthew” and paste in your MP3 files. Here I used the files from Faith comes by hearing. Do the same for the remaining sub-folders.

NOTE: For a KULUMI Mini with anti-tampering 5 or 6: 

The first mp3 file of the first subfolder of the first root folder must be named “The_Story_(something).mp3”.  For example: “The_Story_Creation.mp3” or “THE_STORY_OF_JESUS.mp3” (Note that the letters can be lowercase or uppercase or both. It’s the order that matters) If this file is removed or if you add a card that does not include this file, then Anti-Tampering will be activated. The LED light will not work until it can verify that the file is present again. The light will flash each time Anti-Tampering verification is performed.  For more info on Anti-Tampering, click here.

(If you are using SaberCopy, you can skip this step) Remove any hidden system folders from your datapack. The Mac creates a lot of files that can cause issues for our player. There is a setting in the windows explorer that enables you to see the hidden items. In Win 10, it is “View>Hidden Items”. This is usually not a problem if your content has not been accessed by a Mac computer.

When you are done preparing the Datapack, you can proceed with programming your content into your KULUMI.

2. KULUMI X

The KULUMI X has 3 levels of navigation like the KULUMI MINI. Follow steps 1-4 above.

3. KULUMI SHEEP:

The KULUMI Sheep has 2 levels of navigation:

Folders (Buttons on rear legs) 

Files (Buttons on front legs)

Step 1: Create a Datapack folder on your computer

The Datapack folder is the content folder that will contain all the folders and MP3 files that you want to load into the SHEEP units. Here, it’s on desktop and named “SHEEP DATAPACK”

Step 2: Create folders inside your Datapack

Double click on “SHEEP DATAPACK”.  Here I made 6 folders. Download our Mac_Exclude txt file and HTGv4 command file right under your folders. These 2 files will ensure that your MP3 files will be copied in the correct order. To download the txt and cmd files, click here

Step 3: Paste in your MP3 files

Double click on folder “01 Matthew” and paste in your MP3 files. Here I used the files from Faith comes by hearing. Do the same for the remaining folders.

When you are done preparing the Datapack, you can proceed with programming your content into your KULUMI SHEEP.
