NOTE: If you would like the files on the MP3 player to be displayed in a certain order, simply
drag each file, one by one,
onto the MP3 player’s storage de
vice. The skip buttons on the MP3
player will then display the files in the order in which they were copied to the device.
5.9 Changing the Alert Tone
The MP3 player contains a file named “ALERT.ATC”. This file will be played back whenever the
Alert button on the side of the MP3 player is toggled. You may replace this file with any
recording you like. Save the desired recording with the name “ALERT.ATC” and copy it to the
MP3 player. This new file will now be tied to the Alert button and will play automatically when
the Alert button is pressed.
5.10 Audio File Playback
1. Stop inputs from other audio input devices such as the microphone or an external
device.
2. Select the desired track with the Next File or Previous File buttons.
3. Press PLAY to play the file.
5.11 Using the Alert Tone
The Alert Tone button located on the side of the MP3 player will activate a pre-recorded Alert
sound. Press once for activation, press again for deactivation. The pre-installed Alert Tone is
an intense, pulsating warning tone that is designed to be clearly heard at long distances.
Genasys Inc. recommends using the tone in 2-5 second bursts for maximum effectiveness when
hailing a subject. Pressing the Alert Tone button will interrupt the recorded voice transmission.

WARNING: The Tone Generator produces the loudest output from the LRAD
1950XL. Qualified personnel must ensure the area in front of the LRAD
1950XL is
clear for 100 meters in front of the device before activating the tone in MAXIMUM
mode.
5.12 Other MP3 Player Features
The LRAD MP3 Player features a brightness level button that will cycle the button and LCD
brightness through 3 levels, including off. This is useful in compensating for glare and to avoid
light signature when necessary.
6.0 The Recording Microphone
The LRAD
1950XL is provided with a recording microphone. This microphone features an
integrated digital recording chip that can store approximately one minute of audio. This
feature is extremely useful in situations in which a message needs to be recorded quickly for
repeated continuous use, or where feedback cannot be avoided when talking through the
microphone.
