    CHANGE THE SETTINGS – VOICE ACTIVATED RECORDING

    This audio recorder gives you the option of recording continuously (i.e., recording non-stop even if there is no sound) OR recording with voice-activated recording (VOR) mode (i.e., only recording when there is greater than 45 decibels of sound). The default recording mode is VOICE ACTIVATED RECORDING. 

    Step 1: Open the “SETTINGS” text document.

    Step 2: Leave it set to "ON" to have voice activated recording mode activated or type "Off" to have continuous recording activated.

    Step 3: Click “File” then “Save.”

    CRITICAL NOTE: Recordings made with VOR will be saved with “V” at the beginning of the file name. Recordings made with normal recording will be saved with “R” at the beginning of the file name. See the below pictured example.

    CRITICAL NOTE 2: When using voice activated recording mode, if there is no sound above 45dB detected for 6 SECONDS IN A ROW, then the recorder will stop recording. It will start recording again 0.5 seconds after a sound above 45dB is detected.

    Note:
    After 2 hours of total recording time, a .WAV file gets saved automatically. For example, if the device records for 10 hours over the course of 2 days, there will be a total of 5 .WAV files created during that 2 day time period.

    CHANGE THE SETTINGS - VOR SOUND THRESHOLD

    This audio recorder also gives the option of selecting at which decibel (i.e. sound) level the device will begin recording when it is in voice activated recording mode.

    Step 1: Set the “VOR SOUND THRESHOLD” to either 45, 50, 55, 60 or 65 so that the recorder will record only when sounds above that decibel level are detected.

    Note:
    This is only effective when the "VOICE ACTIVATED RECORDING" setting is set to "On."

    Note 2:
    People speaking registers normally between 55-75 decibels.

    CHARGING, BATTERY AND STORAGE

    Low Battery: If the battery has less than 10% left, 10 seconds of RED FLASHING LIGHT upon first switching on the recorder will be seen. If the device flashes red upon first turning on for 10 seconds, it is recommended that the device be charged.

    Battery: The KT7000 KNIGHT audio recorder contains a 280 mAh battery which allows it to record non-stop for about ~2 full days before turning off and needing to  be re-charged. If used in VOR mode, the battery will last a bit longer. If the device ever runs out of battery, it will save the last recording automatically before shutting down. 

    Charging: Charge your recorded with the provided cable. It will take 2 to 3 hours to become fully charged.

    Storage: The KNIGHT KT7000 contains a massive, built-in 128GB storage capacity which equates to around 1600 hours (about 67 full days!) of total recording time. If the storage capacity ever becomes completely full, the device can no longer record and you will need to delete some recording files in order to create some more storage space (which will then enable recording again).

    TIPS AND TROUBLESHOOTING

    • This recording device is very sensitive. Avoid placing it on surfaces that vibrate to reduce static and fuzz in the recordings.
    • Contact with the recorder during recording may cause static or noises over the recording.
    • For the cleanest and clearest recording, it is recommended to have the holes uncovered and in a stationary location (i.e., peaking out of a pocket, inside a purse yet not completely covered, etc.).
    • In the event of receiving the below pictured pop-up, please select “Continue without scanning.”
