Memory
The Wave uses Memory to store steno notes and timestamp files. Steno note files stored in Memory
remain even when you turn the Wave Off. There is 12,000 strokes of Memory on the Wave or
approximately 50 pages. If the Memory becomes full while writing realtime, the realtime display on the
Wave stops scrolling; however, the Wave continues to send steno notes to the CAT system.
View Memory Files
The Memory screen displays the list of files in a year, month, date and time format: 20090716 - 142341
(July 16, 2009 2:23:41 p.m.). By default, the newest file is listed first. The file size and the estimated
number of transcript pages shows for each file.
Timestamp files are part of the steno note file. They are not visible in the list.

To use a USB cable for reading steno notes, you must be using USB compatible software, such as
Case CATalyst V4.096 and higher; have CAT software that supports the reading of steno notes from a
Stentura; and have installed the Wave USB driver on your computer. See Installing the USB Drivers on

cable into the USB port on the back of the Wave and the other end into a USB port on the computer.
