•

Microphone Gain

—indicates the current gain setting for the microphone,

0 - 100%

. If your

microphone is battery powered, set the gain lower. A suggested starting point is 75 - 80%. If the
microphone is not battery powered, set the gain higher. A suggested starting point is
95-100%. Setting this gain too high, may cause audio feedback.

Press the

- and

sensors as necessary to set the percent. A graphic bar indicates the selected

level. Test the quality and adjust the gain as necessary. You can adjust the gain during a job.

•

HeadPhone Volume

—indicates the current volume level for the audio playback through

headphones,

0 - 100%

. A suggested setting is 65%. The audio is amplified when monitoring live

audio and may require a lower setting when the

Monitor Live Audio

option is active.

Use the

Quieter

and

Louder

sensors to adjust the volume. A graphic bar indicates the selected

level. During a job, you can playback the audio and adjust this option as necessary.

•

Record Audio During Job

—indicates the audio recording status. Press the

On/Off

sensor to

toggle your selection. The default is set to Off. This option

cannot

be changed once you open a

job.

•

Monitor Live Audio

—allows you to listen to the recording live with some amplification through

headphones or a headset attached to the Luminex. Press the

On/Off

sensor to toggle your

selection. During a job, you can playback the audio.

When monitoring live audio during the job the audio is amplified. Check the

HeadPhone Volume

setting for an appropriate level.

•

Auto Pause Resume

—allows you to automatically pause the recording after a specific period of

time, when no new steno is being input from the steno machine. Audio recording automatically
resumes when you begin writing. Using this feature can help conserve SD card space when
recording audio on jobs where long or frequent pauses occur. Use the

and

sensors to set the

wait time before pausing the audio. The range is between 5 seconds and 15 minutes. Settings
from 5 seconds to 2 minutes are made in increments of one second; 2 - 5 minutes in 15 second
increments; and 5 - 15 minutes in one minute increments. You can adjust this option during a job.

When using Case CATalyst, you can use existing Case CATalyst dictionary definitions {Pause
Audio} and {Resume Audio} to manually pause and resume the audio. It is necessary to place
these definitions into your dictionary before loading the dictionary onto the Luminex. When you
manually pause the audio using a steno stroke on the Luminex, you must resume the audio with
a steno stroke, regardless of the setting for the Auto Pause Resume option.

If you are not using Case CATalyst, check with your CAT vendor to verify that your software
recognizes pause and resume commands, if not, do not use the Auto Pause Resume option.

•

Audio Format

—allows you to set the audio compression format for recording. A higher

compression rate, ADPCM (14.7 MB/hour), produces a better audio quality and requires more
space on the Data SD card.

A lower compression rate, GSM (5.8 MB/hour), produces a slightly lower audio recording quality
and requires less space. Press the

Change

sensor to toggle your selection. Audio recorded to

the Backup SD card is recorded at the GSM format regardless of this option setting.

This option cannot be changed once you open a file.
