Chapter 8: MENU mode/SYS SETUP menu

Continuous recording function [Auto part. link]

The “Auto part. link” menu item allows you to enable or disable the auto partition link func- tion. By setting this item to "On" (while the default is "Off"), when there is no recording space left in the current partition during recording (after approximately 4.5 GB recording), the unit automatically creates a new file in the next available partition and continues recording to it. Therefore, you can make long recording which exceeds the capacity of a partition.

<Note>: You can make continuous recording by setting the “Auto part. link” item to “On” only when recording to a partition on the internal hard disk. It is not possible to make continuous recording when recording to a DVD-RAM disk. Also note that continuous re- cording is not possible when carrying out the auto copy function or dual drive recording.

1)While the unit is stopped, press the [SHIFT] key to light the SHIFT indicator, followed by the [ENTER/YES] key.

The display now shows the SYS SETUP menu screen.

3)Use the [MENU] dial to select the “Auto part. link” menu item and press the [ENTER/YES] key.

The current setting starts flashing and you can now select the desired option.
