Introduction: Recording, Playback and P2 Card Handling
◆ NOTE:
•Turning the POWER switch OFF turns off the LOOP REC function
and it will remain off when the unit is powered up next time.
•Loop recording requires P2 cards with at least one minute of free
space each.
•During loop recording, the access LEDs for all P2 cards used in the
recording light orange. Note that removing any of the P2 cards will
terminate loop recording.
•When the menu option LOOP REC MODE is set to ON, the text
“LOOP” is superimposed on the first line of the display. Loop
recording is not available even if LOOP REC MODE is set to ON
when only one P2 card is inserted or when there is less than one
minute of free space on the cards. The text “LOOP” superimposed
on the screen flashes when loop recording is attempted under such
conditions. However, this text does not appear when the
THUMBNAIL and PLAY LIST buttons are on.
• When LOOP REC MODE is set to ON, P2 card remaining free space
indicates the minimum guaranteed recording time. Minimum
guaranteed recording time is the estimated time of a recording in a
clip when loop recording stops immediately after deleting old data.
•Shot marks cannot be added or deleted during loop recording.
•Text memos cannot be added during loop recording.
•LOOP REC is not available during AUTO CAPTURE when an
external device is remote controlled.
•LOOP REC is not available in VFR mode.
Use one of the following two methods.
• Set the unit POWER switch to OFF.
• Set the menu option LOOP REC MODE to OFF.
◆ 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 54).
• Removing a P2 card during formatting will in most cases destroy the
formatting. Reformat the card after restarting the PC.
