RANDOM MUSIC FILE PLAY
Because of the large volumes of Music
that will normally be used,
BMS
uses
SUB-FOLDERS on the FLASH CARD.
16 Sub-Folders are Automatically
created on the MUSIC FLASH CARD,
when you use the
Condition BGM SD
Card
facility in the Control Program.
Each Sub-Folders can have a
MAX of
250 SONGS.
This will provide for a
Maximum of 4000 songs.
BMS
will only play Encrypted MP3 Files, Encrypted with our Encryption
program.
You should transfer complete folders of Encrypted Music (max of 250 songs
per folder) onto the MUSIC card using our our BMS Control Program (see page
6 for further detail).
MUSIC FILE PLAY
On power up,
BMS
will Randomly select and play a Music File from Folder
F001 (or the first Music folder with files). It will then Randomly select and play
a Music File from the next Music Folder with files (usually F002) and so on
until it reaches Folder F016, OR the last Folder which contains Music Files.
Once a file has played from the last folder,
BMS
will repeat the above process,
Randomly selecting an unplayed Music File from the first Folder again, so that
ALL Music Files in any Folder will be played before a Music File is ever repeated.
If you use the Music Folder Time Programming facility or the Timed Stop Play
/ Start Play facilites,
BMS
will remember all files that have played and carry on
as normal once it starts playing again. If power is removed or the SD-HC Flash
Card is removed, then
BMS
will RESTART from the first folder.
The use of Folders presents a perfect opportunity to arrange your Music into
separate GENRE groups. Our Time Programmed Music Folder facility will allow
you to program individual Music Folders to play during a specific time period
(within a single day), or for specific days of the week or for a specified period
(using a start date and stop date). You can also use tthe START and STOP
play facility to coincide with business hours. See page
8
