Project Description
- Project resources
ReleasesThe 'Micro monitor' gadget displays the signal strength registered with the Tux microphone. This gadget has an exclusive priority. Meaning, as long as the gadget window is open, all other gadget notifications and functions are disabled. When the window is closed all other gadget notifications will be restored, but this will also stop the Micro Monitor functions.
Micro Monitor features two modes :
- 'Guard dog' mode -
When activating this mode, and the incoming sound exceeds the threshold, an alarm will go off. You can specify a custom script for the alarm instead of using the default one. Do to this: enable the check box for 'Use an external script' and select a custom script.
- 'Spy' mode -
This mode will record all the sounds exceeding the threshold. To listen to recorded sounds, select 'Recorded files' in the combo box and right click the displayed files in the list.
In the settings window, accessed by right clicking the 'Micro Monitor' gadget in the manager window, you can specify the location to store the recorded sounds.
