About SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)
The System uses the Serial Copy Management System
which allows only first-generation digital copies to be made
of premastered software such as regular CDs.
If you try to record from a duplicated CD-R or CD-RW into
the built-in memory or USB device, “SCMS CANNOT
COPY” appears on the display (see step 4 on page 28).
About HCMS (High-Speed Copy Management System)
This System uses the High-Speed Copy Management
System.
Once you recorded tracks in the recording speed of “REC
SPEED HIGH,” you cannot record the same tracks again in
the recording speed of “REC SPEED HIGH” until 74
minutes pass from the start of the recording of the tracks.
To check the available remaining time for
recording
• For details, see page 15.
• When you want to check the available remaining time
for recording in the built-in memory:
Display “MEM REMAIN.”
• When the remaining time for recording in the built-in
memory is insufficient for target tracks, “DATA FULL”
appears on the display and you cannot record them onto
the built-in memory.
• When you want to check the available remaining time
for recording in a USB device:
Display “USB REMAIN.”
• When you check the available remaining time for
recording while any source other than “MEMORY” or
“USB” is selected, the time is calculated using the current
Recording Mode.
• When you check the available remaining time for
recording while “MEMORY” or “USB” is selected, the
time is calculated using the “SP REC” mode.
Recording from a Disc
You can record tracks in digital recording from a CD onto
the built-in memory or USB device.
• Do not vibrate the System while recording/editing tracks.
Take care especially while “WRITING” is shown on the
display. It may damage the recorded tracks on the System.
