Chapter 4 Adjustments and settings for recording (continued)

4-10-1 Handling the setup card

An SD memory card (optional accessory) can be used as a setup card that stores up to eight files of settings menu specifications.

The setup card can be inserted or removed before or after the power is switched on.

<Notes>

O The unit supports SD memory cards from 8 MB to 2 GB. O The SD memory card must be formatted using the unit.

Inserting the setup card

Open the switch cover, position the SD memory card with its cutout facing up, insert it into the setup card insertion slot, and close the switch cover.

4-10-2 Setup card operations

To format the setup card, save the setting data on the card or read the saved data from the card, first perform a menu operation to open the <CARD READ/WRITE> screen from the FILE page.

<Note>

Before inserting the setup card, check that it is pointed in the correct direction. If the card meets with resistance and if it is difficult to insert, it may mean that it is the wrong way round or upside down. Do not force the card into the slot but check its direction again and insert it properly.

Removing the setup card

Open the switch cover, check that the BUSY lamp is not lighted, and push the setup card further into the unit. This causes the card to partially pop out from the insertion slot. Take hold of the card, remove it, and close the switch cover.
