Battery warning setting (BATT warning)

The “BATT warning” menu sets the threshold of the battery power voltage for automatically ending recording or playback, releasing the disk lock or generating the error tone while the PD-6 is running with the internal battery.

To generate the error tone when the battery power voltage drops below the threshold, the “BATT warning” item in the “Error tone” menu must be set to “On”.

With the “BATT warning” menu, you can set the threshold between 10.5 V and 13.0 V.
