SmartMedia™ Memory Cards
The BNX3 recorder’s memory can be increased by using an optional external SmartMedia™ memory card.
On the back panel is a card slot for adding memory. The BNX3 supports memory cards from 16Meg to
128Meg in size. The table below shows the amount of record time each of the currently available cards will
provide:
Card Size CD LP EP
16Meg 3 track minutes 6 track min 12 track min
32Meg 6 track minutes 12 track min 24 track min
64Meg 12 track minutes 24 track min 48 track min
128Meg 24 track minutes 48 track min 96 track min
To use an external memory card with the BNX3, follow these steps:
1. Place the card into the
MEMORY CARD slot with the contacts facing down.
When a memory card is inserted into a BNX3 for the first time, it needs to be formatted by the BNX3 in
order to use it. To format the card, do the following:
1. Once a card has been inserted into the BNX3’s Memory Card slot, the display reads
format?
and the
RECORD button begins flashing.
2. Press the RECORD button once and the display asks if you are
sure?
you want to format.
3. Press the RECORD button again to begin formatting the card. The BNX3’s functions are temporarily
disabled during the card formatting process. Depending on the memory card size, this process may take
several minutes.
4. When formatting is complete, the display reads
reading
, indicating the BNX3 is reading the newly
formatted card. The BNX3 returns to the preset screen indicating the card is now ready for recording.
NOTE: Once you have recorded onto an external card, you must run the Card>>PC utility
explained in the Recorder Setup section on page 39. if you plan to use the card with an
external card reader connected to a computer. Failure to do so can result in recorded
material being lost.
Transferring Audio Tracks to the Computer
The BNX3’s recorder uses a proprietary format when recording audio to an external memory card. In
order to access tracks created using the BNX3’s recorder on a computer, it is necessary to save these
files in a format that can be read by an external card reader connected to a PC. The following are steps
for preparing the card for this purpose:
1. Once recording is complete, press the
SETUP button repeatedly until the BNX3’s main display reads
CARD>>PC . This is the card preparation menu. The RECORD button begins flashing.
2. To begin the preparation procedure, press the RECORD button. The BNX3’s main display reads
BUSY
as the card is being prepared. The TIME display on the recorder panel begins counting back-
