To Install:

***Follow these instruction or the SonoBat Demo will not operate:

1) Double click on the "Runtime Engine OSX" icon. This will install system resources that the SonoBat 2.4 Demo needs to operate.

2) Drag the "SonoBat Mac 2.4 Demo" file to your Applications folder.

The SonoBat 2.4 Demo should now run. You can drag the application icon to your dock if you like.

Running the SonoBat Demo

When the SonoBat 2.4 Demo launches, you have two options: recording a file or opening a file. Click on the open file button to get started. SonoBat has an extensive suite of features that are described in the User's Guide that accompanies the full version, however, context-sensitive help messages are available to help with the functions. Click on the ? button to find out how to use these help messages.

Open files, click buttons, explore, and have fun!

Note: If the SonoBat Demo halts execution from a memory limitation, push the arrow icon on the upper left of the panel to restart execution to refresh memory. Similar to other processor and graphic-intensive programs, SonoBat thrives on memory.

Also-- if memory limitation becomes a recurrent problem, reduce the maximum points to process setting (see related help message).

Mac-specific tip: Disable File Sharing for best performance.
