When data from a laser rangefinder or a wireless calliper are received, FM Data Collector can notify this event by a sound. Field-Map supports *.wav format for a sound. Sounds are stored in “C:\Users\Public\ FieldMap\Sounds” (Win Vista, 7 and higher) or “C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\FieldMap\Sounds” (Win XP). By default the sound laser.wav is used. If you want to change it or use your own sound, copy the new *.wav file to the “Sound” folder and modify a file System2.ini stored in “C:\Users\Public\FieldMap” (Win Vista, 7 and higher) or “C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\FieldMap” (Win XP). For modification of the System2.ini file use the Notepad text editor.
