The unit retains its recorded content after power loss.
Recording
Auto Recording
A special software program called MessageStudio has been included in your package
which allows you to make your own on-hold message productions. Each production made
with MessageStudio will include specially encoded sync tones which will automatically
start and stop the recording process on the OHP 4500.
These tones will not be recorded.
To record from other CDs or music sources, see "Manual-Recording" section below.
Beginning Auto Recording
To begin recording using MessageStudio software, simply click the "Play Mix" button on
the MessageStudio Player software screen
(see page 8 for instructions on how to create your
production)
. A start tone will be heard and the unit will begin recording automatically.
When finished, a short series of tones will signal the unit to stop recording. After
recording, the unit automatically returns to active play mode.
NOTE:
During recording, the LCD will display a moving arrow from the CD icon to the
memory chip icon. You will hear what is being recorded through the built-in preview
speaker. When recording is finished, and playback begins, the counter on the LCD will
display a running playback time.
IMPORTANT:
To avoid inadvertent erasure of stored audio program, remove "Connector
Cable" from the OHP 4500's "AUX IN" jack when recording is finished.
