19.2 Creating a voice annotation
General A voice annotation is an audio recording that is stored in an infrared image file.
The voice annotation is recorded using a headset connected to the camera. The
recording can be played back in the camera, and in image analysis and reporting
software from FLIR Systems.

As a reminder to include important information about the infrared object in the voice
comment, you can display a checklist in an expanded voice comment dialog box.
You create this checklist in a plain text editor, save it with the *.vgf file extension and
put it in the Images folder in the camera.
To display this checklist when you record a voice comment, select in the Voice
annotation dialog box and push the joystick.
