Creating a New Configuration File

To create a different preset (or presets), you must first create a new configuration file.

Click File>New (or enter CTL + N). This clears all the data entry fields and

enters ‘New’ as the Current Configuration file name.

Enter data for the first preset (Preset ) in all data entry boxes in the Current

Config file, Preset Configuration and DRM Configuration areas of the window. Note

that all these fields are mandatory. The File Name in the BWF/MPEG File Info area

is also mandatory, but Company Name, Reporter Name and Description are

optional and may be left empty if wished. Note that only the characters A-Z and 0-9

are allowed in the File Name field.

Click the SAVE button (or click File>Save, or enter CTL + S). The Save File

As dialogue box opens. Enter a name for the configuration file in the File name box

and click Save. The dialogue box dismisses. In the FlashMic Manager window, note

the Current Configuration file name is now the name just entered.

If you want to create further presets within this configuration file, select a new

number in the Select Preset drop-down box (it is normal, though not essential, to

work in numerical order!), which clears all the data entry boxes. Enter the data for

the new presets in turn, as before. Note that two options in the DRM Configuration

area of the window - Battery and Enable Configuration changes in DRM – retain

the selection that was made when creating the initial preset. This is because these

two parameters are ‘global’, and apply to all the presets in the configuration file.

On SAVEing, the configuration file already created will be updated with the

additional presets. It is then possible to upload this configuration file. See

Uploading a Configuration File to the FlashMic.

Modifying an Existing Configuration File

You may wish to change an existing configuration file in some way, or possibly use an

existing file as a starting point for a different one. Any parameters in one or more presets

may be changed.

Click File>Open (or enter CTL + O). The Select file to Open/Load dialogue box

opens.

The available configuration files (*.cfg) will be listed. Select the file to be used, and

click Open. This dismisses the dialogue box, and FlashMic Manager will now be

loaded with the file. The filename appears as the Current Configuration file in the

window’s top area.

The data for Preset is displayed. Either modify the parameters for this preset, or

select a different preset for modification.

After all necessary changes have been made to the chosen preset, click SAVE

if you don’t want to keep the original set of preset parameters (i.e. in the

configuration file you opened). The set of presets will be saved as a configuration

file with the same name. If you want to create a new configuration file from the

altered presets, click File>Save As, and enter a new name in the Save File As

dialogue box which opens. Click Save.

If you attempt to open a different preset before saving the changes to the current

one a warning will open, prompting you to save the changes first.

Creating a Personalised Defaults File

You may wish to modify the Defaults.cfg file to include parameter values specific to your

operation. In this way, when Presets>Set Default Values is selected, your own personalised

settings are loaded into the FlashMic Manager data fields.

Refer to Modifying an Existing Configuration File and open Defaults.cfg.

Modify the data as desired in Preset , then Save to the existing Defaults.cfg file name.

When modifying Defaults.cfg do not change the Preset Custom Name from PSET_1.
