Recovery Process

In the event of a battery failure while the unit is re-

cording, a recovery process is available to restore 

the recording in proper format. When a new battery is 

installed and the unit is turned back on, the recorder 

will detect the missing data and prompt you to run the 

recovery process. 

The file must be recovered or the 

card will not be usable in the DBSM/DBSMD.

First it will read:

Interrupted Recording 

Found

The LCD message will ask:

Recover? 

for safe use 

see manual

You will have the choice of 

No

 or 

Yes

 (No is selected 

as the default). If you wish to recover the file, use the 

DOWN arrow button to select 

Yes

, then press MENU/

SEL.  
The next window will give you the option to recover all 

or part of the file. The default times shown are the best 

guess by the processor where the file stopped record-

ing. The hours will be highlighted and you can either 

accept the value shown or select a longer or shorter 

time. If you are unsure, simply accept the value shown 

as the default.  
Press MENU/SEL and the minutes are then highlighted. 

You can increase or decrease the time to be recovered. 

In most cases you can simply accept the values shown 

and the file will be recovered. After you have made your 

time choices, press MENU/SEL again.  A small 

GO!

 

symbol will appear next to the DOWN arrow button. 

Pressing the button will initiate the file recovery. The 

recovery will happen quickly and you will see:

Recovery 

Successful

Special Note:

Files under 4 minutes long may recover with additional 

data “tacked on” to the end of the file (from previous 

recordings or data if the card had been used previ-

ously). This can be effectively eliminated in post with a 

simple delete of the unwanted extra “noise” at the end 

of the clip. The minimum recovered length will be one 

minute. For example, if the recording is only 20 seconds 

long, and you have selected one minute there will be 

the desired 20 recorded seconds with an additional 40 

seconds of other data and or artifacts in the file. If you 

are uncertain about the length of the recording you can 

save a longer file - there will simply be more “junk” at 

the end of the clip. This “junk” may include audio data 

recorded in earlier sessions that were discarded.   This 

“extra” information can be easily deleted in post produc-

tion editing software at a later time.
