Settings

Explanation of settings.toml. Caster settings can be edited in the following ways:

Edited through a GUI. Say launch caster settings. Once done, say complete to save the file
The settings file can be summoned manually by saying bring me caster settings file to your default editor for .toml files

The following is an example.toml settings file with comments explaining the various settings. Some of the settings fields have been truncated for brevity as noted in the comments.

default_mic = false # Changes default mic mode when caster starts
mic_mode = "on"
# 'on': mic is on # default
# 'sleeping': mic from the sleeping and can be woken up by command
# 'off': mic off and cannot be turned back on by voice. (DNS Only)

mic_sleep_timer_on = true 
mic_sleep_timer = 300 # A timer puts microphone to after X seconds after last successful recognition.
#DNS/DPI has its own built-in sleep mode timer defaults to 5 minutes. Caster mic sleep timer will not work as expected beyond DNS/DPI 5 #minutes default timer (microphone will go to sleep prematurely). if you increase the default timer to greater than 5 minutes. Anything under 5 minutes/300 seconds caster mic sleep timer will work as expected.
