Precautions on using the recorder connected to a PC
• When you are downloading a file from the recorder or uploading a file to the recorder, do not remove the USB
cable even if the screen is indicating you can. Data is still being transferred while the
PEAK
indicator light is
blinking. When removing the USB cable, be sure to follow the description in
☞
P.85. If the USB cable is removed
before the drive is stopped, data may not be successfully transferred.
• On a PC, do not format the drive of the recorder. Initialization is not successfully achieved on a PC. For
initialization, follow the instructions in the [
Format
] screen of the recorder (
☞
P.78).
• If folders or files stored on the recorder are moved or renamed by using a file management tool in Windows or
Macintosh, the order of files may change or files may become unrecognizable.
• Data can be written or uploaded to the recorder even though the attribute of the recorder drive is shown as
Read-only by the operating system of the PC.
• As noise may cause adverse effects on electronics devices near the recorder, unplug the external microphone
and earphones when you connect the recorder to a PC.
