force<xx>.wav

 – Strike/force sounds, you can store up to 20 sounds.  

deflect<xx>.wav

 – Deflection/lockup sounds, you can store up to 10 sounds.  

 

startup.wav

 – Optional start up playback sound upon boot up. 

mode.txt

 – File holding all configuration parameters. 

 
As an example, let’s say you wanted 2 ignition sounds, 2 retraction sounds, 3 swing 
sounds, 1 clash sound, 1 force sound, 2 deflection sounds.  In the root microSD directory 
would be the files: 

 
on1.wav 
on2.wav 
off1.wav 
off2.wav 
swing1.wav 
swing2.wav 
swing3.wav 
force1.wav 
deflect1.wav 
deflect2.wav 
mode.txt 

 
 

CONFIGURATION FILE FORMAT 
 

The different settings for the sound module are stored in a text file named “

mode.txt

” on 

the SD card in the root directory.   
 
This file holds all settings that the user can tweak to customize their saber behavior.  If 
the file is not found the sound board will set these parameters to known defaults.  The file 
can be readily created and edited using Notepad or Write in Windows or any standard 
text editor program. 
 
Here is an example list of the current parameters defined in the config file “mode.txt”.
