Recording Settings

While the recorder is designed to record messages without requiring special settings, it offers a LP mode for long recordings, a DICT mode for dictation, and a Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) to economize on memory usage. For more details see the relevant sections of the manual.

Recording modes:

SP (Standard Playback) mode/ LP (Long Playback) mode

→P.25

Microphone sensitivity:

CONF (conference recording)/ DICT (dictation recording)

→P.26

Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA):

Notes

•When “FULL” appears on the display, you cannot record any more. To free up memory, you have to erase messages. (see page 21). To archive your recordings prior to erasing, you can transfer messages to a PC. (see software section).

•While recording is in progress, never disconnect or connect the AC adapter even if the recorder contains batteries. This may result in failure to play the recorded message.

•If the recorder is paused for 30 minutes or longer while recording, it enters standby mode and the display shuts off. (To release the recorder from standby mode and turn on the display, press any one of the STOP, REC, PLAY, FF, or REW buttons or the MENU/VOL switch.)

•See recording tips

– for Record Meetings and Lectures. (P. 26)

Overwrite recording

You can overwrite a recorded message from any point by pressing the REC button while the recorder is stopped or paused.

Notes

•The previous recording will be erased.

•If the overwritten recording exceeds the recorded time of the previously recorded message, the next message is not erased.
