◆
NOTE:
• The P2 card access LED for a slot where a P2 card is inserted during
playback of a previously inserted card will remain off and the
second P2 card is not recognized. The second P2 card is
recognized when playback ends.
The continuous playback function, however, allows playback of all
the clips, including those in the P2 card inserted during playback.
➝
Refer to “Continuous Playback of Clips by Inserting/Removing P2
Cards” (page 57).
• A P2 card inserted in another slot during recording of a previously
inserted card will cause the P2 card access LED to flash and the
card will be recognized. Do not remove the P2 card from the slot
while it is being recognized.
• P2 cards are played back and recorded in the following slot order:
1
➝
2
➝
3
➝

• When the power is turned on and the slot selected for recording at
the last power off contains the same P2 card, that slot will again be
selected for recording. If the slot does not contain a P2 card or
contains another P2 card, a card in a slot with the lowest number will
be selected for recording.
• Slots can be selected also during recording.
When a slot could not be selected, for example, at the start of
recording or right after changing the P2 card slot used for recording,
“SLOT SEL INVALID” appears on the LCD monitor. Ongoing
LOOPREC and VFR recording also prevent selection of P2 card
slots.
• When a P2 card becomes full during recording, a slot with a higher
number that contains a card with free space will be selected for
recording.
<Precaution in using P2 cards>
• Format P2 cards only on a P2 card device.
• Recording is not available when setup menu No. 27 (VDCP CMD) is
ON during REMOTE operation.
