SCMS.

This stands for Serial Copy Management System, and is a standard for

recording. This standard regulates the copying of digital signals between

digital audio devices. In essence, a copy can be made but copies of those
copies are not permitted. During digital recording, PLEXTALK constantly

verifies the SCMS status track by track. Tracks for which digital recording

and copying is prohibited cannot be copied.

Section.
A section in a DAISY title is the piece of audio between one heading and

the next. Headings are used to mark such things as chapters, sections and

sub sections in a book. Do not confuse a section in a DAISY title and a

section in a book. See Chapter 3 for further information about DAISY

structures.

Session-at-once.

This is a CD writing mode. In this mode you record all items at once from

the beginning to the end of a session. Compatible writing software is

necessary.

Session close.

When you have finished creating a CD, your software must carry out a

Close session process, which involves writing the lead-in and lead-out

areas of the disc. You will not be able to read the CD in a normal CD-ROM
drive until the Close session process has occurred.

Single-session.

CD-R and CD-RW discs on which only one session is written. Compare this

with a multi-session CD.

Special pages.

This is a DAISY feature that allows pages to be appended by rules that are

different from the text pages. For example, attached tables and figures in

the midst of a book, are recorded as special pages. You cannot navigate
to a special page using the Page key but you can navigate to them

sequentially using the "Page" option on the Navigation menu.

Split phrase setting when no sound.

PLEXTALK contains a setting for automatically splitting phrases. When
there is no input sound for a specified number of seconds, PLEXTALK

automatically creates a new phrase in the recording.
