Tip 10:   Customizing Sounds

You can set audio 'sound' options to assist you in checking your lottery game.

They're a good way to focus on finding the information you want, and they add convenience.

When you're entering new numbers, you can get 'feedback' that you're entering them correctly -- both for regular numbers, and for 'bonus' numbers if your game uses them.

When you use sounds in your Automatic Scanning, it makes it very easy to search for specific information.  Your program will scan for the data you want, then will stop and give you a light 'beep' tone when it finds it.  If you prefer silent operation, you can set your scanning for it also.

It takes only a couple of mouse clicks to set your options.

Here's how to do it.

Select Your Sound Options Menu

First, go to your Sound Options menu.

• At your MAIN screen, select VIEW.
• On your Viewing Options menu, select "Sound Options".
• You'll see a new menu with a variety of Sound Options.

To Set Sound Options

Here are your main options.  To select one, just click on it.

• OFF except for entry error:  This turns all sounds off, except in the case of an incorrect number entry (for example, a number that is outside the game's range).



• ON for Main Screen Ready:  This lets you know that your last operation is complete, and your Main Screen is ready for a new one.



• ON for Data Entry:  This gives you 'feedback' when you enter a number correctly, and lets you know when it's time to enter a Bonus number (if your game uses them).



• ON for Checking Wins:  This gives you the light 'beep' tone when using your Automatic Scanning features.
  
  For example, on your Lotto WINS menu, you can see which pick lines have been producing the most wins.  Or, you can search the game's draws for a range of Sums, Even/Odd, Repeats, and other factors.  If this sound option is ON, your program will give you an audio 'flag' when it finds what you are looking for.



• ON for All Sound Options:  This is an easy way to set all of your options to ON, with a single click.

Viewing Your Current Settings

If you want to just view your current sound settings (without changing them), click "View Your Current Settings" on your Viewing Options menu.

Saving Your Settings

When you set a new sound option, it will take effect immediately.  You'll see it in operation when you return to your MAIN screen.

Your sound setting will be saved for you automatically when you exit.
