1. Power up CION. Be sure to wait for CION to complete the boot up sequence.
2. Insert Pak media into the media slot. The media should be inserted with the blue
“AJA” logo facing upright and the logo facing the front of the camera.

3. The Pak media will be scanned upon insertion and a “Media Mounting” prompt will
appear on the User Interface Screen.
4. You will know that the media is properly mounted when the green LED indicator on
the Pak is illuminated and the CION user interface reports a capacity remaining
percentage for the media (99% for example).
NOTE: Before you perform recordings, review the menu parameters and configure them with the
desired settings for format, frames per second, encode type, etc.
To remove Pak media from CION
1. Make certain that transport operations like recording or playback are stopped; if this
has not been done, a prompt will appear instructing you to “Press STOP.”
2. Depress the Media Unmount button designated with the “eject” icon.
3. Wait for the green LED indicator on the Pak to no longer be illuminated and then
grasp the media and pull up to remove it.
Caution! Do not remove the Pak media from CION while the LED is illuminated or
flashing.
Warning! Not using the Media Unmount Button to properly unmount the media could
result in media issues or even damage to the media. If inserted media has any issues,
prompts such as
“WARNING Backup and Reformat” may be displayed.
