Changing a Folder Name

The folders in the software and recorder can be renamed to reflect the type of recording they will contain. For example, Folder A might be used to store private information and thus be renamed PRIVATE, while Folder B might be dedicated to holding business information and thus be renamed BUSINESS.

Changing a folder name in the software

You can change a folder name in the Dictation List View using the [Rename Folder] command from the [File] menu. A folder name can be up to 20 characters long and cannot use \ /:*?"<>.

Changing a folder name in the recorder

Right-click the folder in the Device Tree View to be renamed, select the [Rename Folder] and input the new folder name.

The name of the folder on the recorder will be updated with the new folder name automatically. Device Window folder names consist of a string of 8 or fewer alphanumeric characters.

Editing File Comments

You can use your DSS Player to create/edit comments, then transfer them from the PC to the recorder. You can also edit file comments imported from the recorder to a PC.

Click the [Tools] menu, then select [Edit Comment].

File comments can use up to 100 alphanumerical characters and symbols.
