Using Sound Events

Sound Events provide audible feedback in addition to the visual user interface. This allows you to perform measurement actions if away from the screen. To access the Sound Events tab of the Setup Options dialog box, select the Edit | Preferences | Setup menu item.

When you work with a laser device, these Sound Event options are particularly useful:

Laser Manual Calibration Bottom - This sound plays when calibration measurements for a given field should be taken in the upper region of the sphere.

Laser Manual Calibration Field Counter - This sound plays to indicate in which field measurements should be taken during calibration.

Laser Manual Calibration Top - This sound plays when you need to take calibration measurements for a given field in the lower region of the sphere.

Laser Sensor Initialization End - This sound plays at the end of the laser sensor initialization.

Laser Sensor Initialization Start - This sound plays at the beginning of the laser sensor initialization.

Laser Scan - This sound plays for each new step of the sensor calibration.
