Notes

When you record on a 1GB Hi-MD disc, use a new alkaline dry battery (battery level

indication shows ), or connect the optional AC power adaptor to the recorder. When you attempt to start recording on a 1GB Hi-MD disc, “NotENOUGH POWER TO REC” may appear and recording cannot be done even if the battery level indication shows sufficient remaining power while the recorder is stopped or playing. This is because of a mechanism that disables recording when the remaining battery power is estimated by the recorder to be insufficient due to the high power consumption required for 1GB Hi-MD disc recording.

Before making a recording while using the optional AC power adaptor, always insert a new alkaline dry battery into the recorder first to ensure that the recording operation completes successfully.

Make sure to place the recorder at a stable, vibration-free place during recording.

If you start recording when the disc indication is still rotating in the display, the first few seconds of the material may not be recorded. Make sure that the disc indication has stopped rotating before you start recording.

Do not change the dry battery during operation even if the recorder is connected to AC power adaptor (not supplied). The operation may stop.

Do not move or jog the recorder or disconnect the power source while recording, or while “DATA SAVE” or “SYSTEM FILE WRITING” is flashing in the display. If you do, the data recorded up to that point may not be recorded to the disc, or data on the disc may be damaged.

Recording cannot be done when the disc does not have enough space for recording.

If the power supply is disrupted (i.e. the battery is removed or becomes exhausted) during a recording or editing operation, or while “DATA SAVE” or “SYSTEM FILE WRITING” appears in the display, then it will not be possible to open the lid until power is restored.

The recorder is factory set to make a new

group whenever recording is done. If you do

not want to make a group, set “ :REC” to “ :REC Off” (page 33).

To start recording from a specific point on the disc, pause the recorder at the desired point, and then start recording from that point.

You can monitor the sound during recording. Changing the volume level will not affect the recording level.
