Change 02 

DEVIS v.2 utilizes only the .wav format for tones and recorded messages—NO OTHER AUDIO 
FORMATS are supported at this time.  If you wish to create your own emergency tone files, 
simply store them on the C:\ drive by importing or creating right on DEVIS. 
 
From this point you can open another explorer window, open your CD drive on DEVIS if you’re 
importing from CD (D:\), or open your floppy drive (A:\), or open your mapped network 
computer that contains the files you are importing.  Once you have located the audio files to 
import, left-click on them one time, and use the mouse to “drag” them to the DEVIS folder 
“C:\DEVISFOL\AUDIO”.   
 
You will now see in the audio folder your new .wav file has been added.  It is now available for 
use by DEVIS.  Remember, for DEVIS to use your audio files, they must be stored in DEVIS in 
the folder “C:\DEVISFOL\AUDIO”.  By the same token, if you want to remove a file from 
DEVIS use, simply remove it from the “AUDIO” folder.  You can utilize the large unused 
portion of DEVIS’s hard drive to store and archive old data, or simply delete as required.   
 
You may store as many .wav files as you like in the folder, and declare through the software, 
which one is actually to play in which slot.  You can repeat .wav files as often as you like, and 
you may choose to not use some of them at all.   
 
This manual will cover how to select which audio file plays in which slot later.
