  Do not prompt to configure devices when connected: Check this box to suppress the pop up window to configure devices when they are connected to the PC by USB.
  
• 
  Prompt to upload files bigger than __ MB: Enter a value here to warn users when they are uploading files of a certain size. Larger files take longer to upload and based on the connection speed of the PC may not have time to upload before they are timed out and the upload fails.

• 
  Retain encrypted dictations on this workstation for __ days: Set the retention time for encrypted sent dictations.

• 
  Seconds to jump when rewinding: Define the interval InSync moves when using the rewind button. Larger numbers will rewind faster.

  • 
    Prompt for Action: A dialog will appear prompting an action for the current dictation.
    
  • 
    Place on Hold: InSync will automatically place the current dictation on hold, and open a new PACS dictation.

    Reject PACS Dictation: InSync will automatically reject the PACS Dictation and continue the current dictation process.
    
• 
  XML: InSync can also upload a file pair with demographics contained in an XML file alongside the audio file. Specify the location of the file pairs in the PACS Folder field.

• 
  Current Strength: A summary of the file privacy. Strength can be “Strong,” “Fair,” or “Poor.”

  Use Encryption: Indicates if the audio files stored locally on the PC are encrypted or not. (Note: InSync stations that do not encrypt their files will automatically be awarded “Poor” security strength.)

  Enable Dictation Saving: If checked, users can save a copy of the dictation from the Dictation log. This setting does not affect Security strength but is logged as an activity.
  
• 
  Use System Generated Filename Format: This radial option will use EMDAT’s default file naming convention.
