File metadata
The sound files also contain metadata, such as original file name, date and time, firmware
version, recording profile settings and an identification number. For units that come with
firmware version 2.1.1 (or higher) installed, the identification number is the serial number of
the detector by default. The metadata (or parts of it) can be retrieved by the D500X Utility
program and the BatSound program.
Users upgrading from a firmware version lower than 2.1.1 may wish to update the
identification number, to make the desired number (e.g. serial number) appear in the metadata
of the files. Please contact Pettersson for information about this.
