The following are some possible reasons why the volume indicator will not move: A. The volume indicator cannot move because the sound card is already recording (for instance a multimedia program is in the midst of recording) or is already playing (see if you have a simplex or a duplex sound card). B. Your sound card driver is not installed properly and other multimedia programs are also unable to use the record function. In this case the DSB-R100 will certainly be unable to record or display the volume level. C. Because the earphone's RCA wire is not properly plugged in to the sound card's Line In socket, the volume meter can't move and you can't hear any sound either. D. You haven't turned on the volume meter (set from the Options menu as shown above). E. The final reason is also the most important: The source of the sound to be recorded has been selected incorrectly. In theory, sound output from the DSB-R100 will go to the sound card's Line In, and the source of sound to be recorded should also be the Line In. Only then will sound from the radio pass through the recording and digitizing unit and be displayed. But if Line In (Line) has not been selected as the sound source, then the sound card won't receive input from the radio, and the volume meter won't be able to function normally. However, because we took this into consideration when designing the DSB-R100 software, this situation should seldom occur. Whenever you run the 37

A. The volume indicator cannot move because the
sound card is already recording (for instance a

B. Your sound card driver is not installed properly and
other multimedia programs are also unable to use
the record function. In this case the DSB-R100 will
certainly be unable to record or display the volume
level.
C. Because the earphone's RCA wire is not properly
plugged in to the sound card's Line In socket, the
volume meter can't move and you can't hear any
sound either.
D. You haven't turned on the volume meter (set from

E. The final reason is also the most important:
The source of the sound to be recorded has been
selected incorrectly. In theory, sound output from
the DSB-R100 will go to the sound card's Line In,
and the source of sound to be recorded should also

Only then will sound from the radio
