Chapter 3: Writing on the Diamante
© 2012 Stenograph, L.L.C.
Writing Jobs
The Diamante stores steno notes, timestamps, job dictionaries, audio files and J-Defines on the Data SD
card. The Diamante also saves steno notes, timestamps and audio files to the Backup SD card; and
saves steno notes and timestamps to memory.
The Backup SD card is not designed to be removed from the Diamante unless, in a rare occurrence, it is
necessary to locate a job that cannot be found in memory or on the Data SD card. The Backup SD card
must be in the Diamante in order for the steno machine to operate. Never remove the Backup SD card
while the Diamante is On.
To begin writing:
1. Turn the Diamante
On
. Press the first function button on the left.
2. The Diamante logo displays briefly on the Tilting screen followed by the title bar across the top of the
screen and the Opening menu at the bottom.
