Making auto copy

1)Slide the [REC] key to start recording to the partition.

When the auto copy mode is set to “IMME”, audio data is recorded to the partition, while it is copied to the PD204 DVD-RAM disk.

2)Press the [PAUSE] key to stop recording.

If you choose the “BGRD” (Background mode) in step 4) and execute recording, auto copy actually starts when pressing the [PAUSE] key to stop recording.

When starting auto copy, “Backup Copy start!” is shown on the display for a few seconds, and immediately after copy finishes, “Backup Copy Finished!” is shown.

In the “BGRD” (background mode), even if no DVD-RAM disk is set, the PD204 makes recording to the partition. In such a case, the copy data remains internally after recording to the partition finishes, therefore, auto copy is executed when set- ting a blank DVD-RAM disk.

<Note>: If you execute auto copy without setting a copy destination (blank DVD- RAM) disk, the copy data remains until turning off the unit.

However, once you turn off the unit, the copy data is erased and the unit does not execute auto copy.

<Note>: If you do not need to make auto copy, set the “Auto copy” menu item back to “Off”.
