Notify New Line Audibly

This option allows newly captured lines of data should be notified audibly, either by a PC beep or by playing a specified sound file.

 

This feature is really designed for low volume data capture, such as swipe card logging.  This feature works with the service version, and may be useful as a gentle confirmation that data is being captured.

 

Gap Between Sounds

A gap in seconds may be specified between audible notifications, to prevent continual noise when receiving frequent data.  This gap is common to all capture ports, so there any further sounds are suppressed until the specified gap for the latest capture port has expired. 

 

Play Sound File Name

A sound file camera.wav is supplied, as an example of what may be played.
