Connection Status

The large “LED” indicator at the top right of the window indicates

whether a FlashMic is connected to the computer. It is red when

a FlashMic is not connected, and turns green when a successful

connection is established.

Menu Bar

Many of the options available in the menu bar are standard to all Windows™ applications

and need little explanation:

File>

New: clears all parameter fields, allows creation of new configuration file. (Keyboard

shortcut: CTRL + N)

Open: opens “Select file to Open/Load” dialogue box to permit selection of existing

configuration file to load. (Keyboard shortcut: CTRL + O)

Save: Saves currently-loaded configuration file as existing filename, unless it is a new file

being saved for the first time, in which case the “Save File As” dialogue box opens, for file

naming. (Keyboard shortcut: CTRL + S)

Save As: opens “Save File As” dialogue box to permit file naming before saving. (Keyboard

shortcut: none)

File Repair: opens a routine to allow a FlashMic audio file that has become corrupted (due to

power failure etc.) to be recovered. This routine scans the FlashMic’s memory and checks

for correct file lengths and EOF markers, and applies fixes where necessary and possible. A

report is provided identifying fixed and lost files. (This functions in the PC version only.)

Exit: closes FlashMic Manager. (Keyboard shortcut: CTRL + E)

Settings>

Set Date and Time: opens “Set Date and Time” dialogue box, permitting the FlashMic’s

internal clock to be reset. This clock is used to time-stamp recorded audio files. (Keyboard

shortcut: CTRL + T)

Note this menu option is unavailable unless a FlashMic is connected to the computer and

turned on.

Set DRM Name: opens “Set DRM Name” dialogue box, allowing the name of the FlashMic

currently connected to be changed (maximum 6 characters). The factory default name is

DRM85. This name forms part of the file header of each recorded sound file, so renaming

the FlashMic to a unique name (e.g., that of the user) is of great assistance when multiple

FlashMics are employed. (Keyboard shortcut: CTRL + R.) See FlashMic File Names, page

35 for more information.

Note this menu option is unavailable unless a FlashMic is connected to the computer and

turned on.
