Recording to SD/SDHC cards

Your RecordR radio has been designed to allow you to make recordings to SD/SDHC cards. You may record a current radio programme or you may use the timed record facility (see page 23).

It is possible to record onto SD/SDHC cards which already contain files written by the radio or using your computer. The recorded files will be added to those already present on the card.

Note: You must stop the recording before you can access other functions. If you attempt to use other functions on your radio while recording a warning message 'Hold RECORD to stop recording' will be displayed.

Recording a radio program

1.Select the desired source for recording (DAB or FM radio). Set the volume to the required listening level (the volume of the recording will not be affected by this).

2.Insert the card on to which the recording is to be made (card label side facing towards you and gold contacts first, see proceeding page).

3.Press and hold the Record button. The display will show the record

symbol . Recording will then start with the recording source shown on the display. Record duration may be up to 23 hours and 59 minutes. Recording will stop if the SD/SDHC card becomes full.

4.While a recording is in progress the Play / Pause button may be used to temporarily suspend recording. A second press of the Play / Pause button will resume recording.

5.In order to stop the recording press and hold the Record button once more. Recording will stop and a file will have been written to the SD card. The recording will be stored and the display will show 'Saved'.

Long recordings are split into files of just over 30 minutes duration to help protect recordings against power failure or accidental card removal. Recordings may also be split to accommodate DAB configuration changes made by the broadcaster.

Recording files are named using the radio station name or frequency and the date and time at which the recording began. If the recording is split, then the subsequent parts of the recording are given a sequence number to allow the radio to play them as a set, as shown:

BBC R4,21-09-2011,12-15.mp2

BBC R4,21-09-2011,12-15_01.mp2

BBC R4,21-09-2011,12-15_02.mp2

BBC R4,21-09-2011,12-15_03.mp2

Recordings may be played in the radio in SD card mode, or using media player programs on a computer (e.g. Windows Media Player).
