Editing the CF Card Data By Yourself
The Audio System administrator should refer to information below when editing (authoring) the CF card data.
CF Card Format
• The CF card is in DOS format.
(When the CF card is purchased it is already in DOS
format. Do not alter the version, cluster size, or
make any other physical format change.)
Long file names are incompatible and therefore
cannot be used.
• Store the message file in the sub directory
“01??????” of the root directory.
In the “01” section, a number can be set from 01 -
09.
(The default setting is 01.)
For more information on editing methods for
playback that is initiated from the sub directory,
refer to Message Group Select Functions on this
page.
The area occupied by “??...” can be used after
assigning a desired value.
Naming a Message File
Name a file according to the following instructions.
Point reception file
Auto reception file
P001????. WAV
A101????. WAV
• The “P” prefix indicates the message will be played
back through the point reception method. The Auto
reception method is indicated with “A.”
• The 2nd to 4th digits can be used to indicate an
address number from 000 - 999.
However, Point or automatic playback that is
initiated from the reception of encoded infrared
signals, can only be assigned to the address
numbers 000 - 255.
The address numbers from 256 - 999 can only be
used for playback that is initiated through key entry.
For these numbers, “P” should be assigned as the
prefix.
• Do not assign the same address number for Point
reception and Auto reception messages.
• The 5th to 8th digits can be used after assigning a
desired value. The file extension should always be
designated as “WAV.”
< Notice >
• Make sure to use only the CF card recommended by
JVC.
• Presently JVC is introducing CF card authoring
specialists to our customers. For more information,
please feel free to contact a sales representative.
File That Displays the CF Card
Version
Through placing a file that displays the CF card
version in the root directory, after turning on the
power, the CF card version will be displayed. This will
appear after the display that indicates the remaining
amount of battery power. This function makes it
possible to distinguish between the contents of one
CF card and another. When a file that displays the CF
card is not present, the version number is not
displayed.
• File name
The file name for the file that displays the version
should be “VER.TXT.”
• File format
The following explains the format for the file that
displays the card version.
• Write a file prefix that indicates a version number
from 00 - 99.
• Display format
The CF card version will appear in the display
window as “C01.” The number “01” will change
according to the version number written in the file
that displays the card version.
Message Group Select Function
It is possible for the visitor to select from a variety of
messages that can be played back. This is
accomplished because a number of sub directories
can be created and in each sub directory different
languages or additional message files can be stored.
• Sub directory names
There are 9 different types of subdirectories from
“01??????” to “09??????.”
The area occupied by “?” can be used after
assigning a desired value.
(The default setting is “01??????.”)
• Selection method for the message group (language)
A sub directory can be selected by turning the
POWER ON while pressing one of the 10 numerical
keys
1
-
9
. If POWER is turned ON without pressing
any of the 10 numerical keys, “01??????” is
selected.
• Checking the message group (language)
Check with the earphones whether or not the
playback correctly corresponds to the selected
message group.
