WARNING SOUNDS
DashDAQ has the ability to play either one of the pre-made or user made warning sounds when a specific parameter has gone above or
below a user specified range. Besides using the pre-packaged sounds, DashDAQ users can also create and use their own warning sounds
on DashDAQ. The Warning sounds option comes preloaded on new DashDAQs. If you are updating from a previous firmware, make sure
the Warning Sounds option is selected in the DashDAQ Recovery tool. To set a Warning Sound:
1. Tap on a gauge that you want the warning sound to be apparent on.
2. Tap on the crossed out speaker for either the High or Low warning. A sound will be played when the signal has crossed the High
or Low warning threshold.
3. Tap on the black box next to “Sound” to select the audio clip to be played when the threshold is crossed.

4. The repeat rate is how often the sound will repeat while the threshold is crossed. 0 will repeat constantly.
5. The “State” field will either enable or disable the warning. Tap [Save].
6. Make sure your warning threshold for the high or low warning that you use is set, and make sure your signal for the gauge is
specified.
