Notes on the Folders

The recorder has three folders: A, B, and S.

Folders A and B

Each recorded message stored in a folder is saved as a Wave file. These folders can be selectively used to distinguish the kind of recording. Up to 100 files can be stored per folder.

Folder S

In folder S, files are nested in date subfolders,* making it useful for storing a certain day’s schedule for future reference. Up to 15 files can be stored in a single date subfolder, and up to 100 files altogether can be recorded in folder S.

*There is one subfolder for each day of the year.
