Hi,

This is incorrect. You can associate an alarm with any file on the unit.

Now with files you can only associate it memos in the memos folder. It would be cool if you could associate an mp3 file lets say.

If you keep it connected to a speaker, you might want to associate the alarm with a memo file which says "Have lunch with Jane in five minutes."

Paul, I agree with you.  This feature mystifies me.

Hi. I don't understand why one would want to associate a file with an alarm.
I always thought an alarm was to alert me about something like an
appointment or to wake up at a certain time, etc.
When would I use the associate with a file feature and wouldn't I have to
keep ear buds connected and in my ears<grin>?

Hi,

When I associate a file with an alarm, the file only starts playing after I
press the 2 key to silence the alarm. The BP stays in alarm mode even after
the file has played. The only way that I have found to get out of alarm mode
is to press and hhold the 2 key as if I was checking the time. This returns
the system to normal use.


I don't know how others feel, but I find the wording of the items under the
sound setting confusing. The word external is used to describe the speaker
that is inside the Book Port. The word internal is used to describe the
sound that comes out of the headphone jack. I suggest using built-in for the
speaker that is inside the Book Port and headphone for having the alarm come
through the headphone jack.
Admitedly there may be better words but at least I am interested in starting
the discussion.
