BIOACOUSTIC MONITORING SYSTEMS

Relative triggers (positive level values) are strongly recommended for

recording bats as the trigger will intelligently adapt to the environment.
If WAV file format is specified in the FS command, an individual time-

stamped WAV file will be created for each triggered event during the

scheduled recording period. If WAC compressed file format is specified,

there will be one file created for the recording duration containing all the

triggered events.
Trigger

AUTO

setting behavior:

■

At least one SMM-U1 ultrasonic microphone on either channel: +12 dB

■

No SMM-U1 ultrasonic microphones attached: OFF

NOTE:

Triggers do not work well for most acoustic applications, but this command

must be used to prevent an error.

Off

Auto

should be selected (

Auto

will select

Off

as well). This is to maintain cross compatibility of programs from SM3 to SM3BAT.

TRGWIN <window-channel-0> <window-channel-1>

Specifies the maximum recording duration in the absence of a triggering

signal. Values are 0.1 sec – 9.9 sec in 0.1-sec steps.
This command is only relevant if

TRGLVL

is not

OFF

This should be set sufficiently long to avoid a recording ending after one

echolocation. If a bat echolocates every 0.5 seconds and this was set to 0.1

seconds, you would get a new trigger with every single echolocation. Three

(3.0) seconds works well for species in most parts of the world. Some

standards describe a

bat pass

by specific recording trigger window. Use this

command with

TRGMAX

to constrain recordings to a specific duration.

TRGMAX <len-channel-0> <len-channel-1>

Specifies the maximum duration for a triggered recording. Values are 0.1

sec – 99.9 sec in 0.1-sec steps, or

OFF

. Some software programs only accept

files under certain durations. Use this command to set a maximum file

duration.
In ZC mode, the maximum file size is 15 seconds even if this command is set

higher.
This command is only relevant if

TRGLVL

is not

OFF

NAP <delay>

Specifies how long to wait in the absence of a trigger before going into

power-saving nap mode. Set a value from 1 to 99 minutes in 1 minute

steps, or set to

OFF.

It takes approximately 200 ms to wake from a nap to

start recording. Once out of a nap, the SM3 remains ready and waits for a

trigger for the amount of time specified here. Shorter times yield greater
