Does the software give you more functionality than just plugging into the pc and going from my computer? Can't honestly see how it would do more but maybe I'm missing something. Thanks. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On

Ok, I've established that the advanced audio controls for output just aren't there on the computers in this house. This means that while we can change volume in the windows controls we don't have access to tone. Any thoughts as to why some pc's allow access to these controls and others not?

To get into any of the settings menus on the DM520, just hold the middle button in, the one in the center of the four. Then just go up and down to what you want and it will speak. I think you want folder options. As to the question about audio prompts, I believe these are on by default. But
