Menu operations

Menu operations let you fine tune how the PMD671 is set up, including the recording parameters for your specific recording situation.

The PMD671 is always recording using Preset1, 2 or 3. To modify the recording setup, you modify one of those three presets.

The Menu procedure starts with selecting one of the Presets, then modifying either the settings within that Preset, or the General settings for Date and time, date format, beep and/or battery type.
