Record without time
Hi,
Can anyone tell me what i need to change that the moth will start recording immediately without any set time. (only recording period is set once - to limit the filesize) It could name the files like 1.WAV, 2.WAV or so. i dont need a timestamp and the setting of the time only complicates deployment. GPS only needs battery...
The next thing i'd like to know is why this device "looses" its firmware sometimes if the battery is disconnected for some time.
Thanks in advance

Hi Phil,
If you switch to DEFAULT the AudioMoth will make a continuous recording with the current configured recording settings (gain and sample rate) without having to set the time.
If you use the GPS board with the AudioMoth, it will set the time from the GPS board when you switch to CUSTOM so you don't need to set the time then either.
The AudioMoth shouldn't lose its configuration or firmware. Both are stored persistently in flash memory. If you remove the battery however it will lose the time, so you will need to set the time with the Time App or smartphone app prior to recording.
