The Audio Messenger Interface Configuration Tool (ACT) software is used to define and change
configurations for the Audio Messenger Interface (AMI), and is included with all models of AMI. To
retrieve configurations and play audio messages, the AMI accesses a SmartMedia
®
card. Each AMI is
shipped with a SmartMedia
®
card pre-programmed with the
AMI Factory
Default
configuration.
Using the ACT software, custom configurations are created. After a custom configuration is created, it
must be saved to the local hard drive (typically in the <drive>:\Program Files\AMI Configuration
Tool\AMI Configs folder). After the configuration is saved to the hard drive, it must be moved or copied
to the SmartMedia
®
card using Windows Explorer.

Custom configurations cannot be saved directly to a SmartMedia
®
card.
