Introduction
◆ NOTE:
• Do not remove P2 cards during access or during recognition
directly after insertion (when the P2 card access LED flashes
orange).
1 Press the STOP button.
When the P2 card access LED of a card to be removed
flashes orange, press the STOP button to stop the
flashing.
2 Set the card lock to OFF and raise the EJECT button.
3 Press the EJECT button to eject the P2 card.
◆ NOTE:
•Removing a P2 card in the thumbnail screen automatically closes
the thumbnail screen.
•Do not remove P2 cards during access or during recognition
directly after insertion (when the P2 card access LED flashes
orange); otherwise the P2 cards may be damaged. If a P2 card by
any chance is removed during access, [E-30] appears on the LCD
monitor and the LCD panel displays the [AUTO OFF] warning. All P2
card access LEDs will flash rapidly in orange. Turn off the power,
and then turn it back on.
•The clips on a P2 card that was removed during access may no
longer be in the right order. Check the clips and perform the
necessary repair operation.
➝ For details, refer to “Repairing Bad Clips” (page 48).
• Removing a P2 card during formatting will in most cases destroy the
formatting. Reformat the card after restarting the PC.
Set the write-protection switch to [PROTECT] to prevent
accidental deletion of data recorded on a P2 card.
◆ NOTE:
•Switching the write-protection switch during recording, playback or
other access operation will not take effect until after these access
operations (playback, recording, etc.) complete.
