Using an SD memory card with your radio
An SD card can be used in your radio for recording, playing back previously
recorded radio programs, or playing back MP2 and MP3 fi les transferred
from a PC.
Depending on the radio station a 128MB SD card will give typically 2- 4
hours of recording time. If you are using a new SD card ensure that it is
formatted correctly.
Many different brands and capacities of SD card are available. Your RD55
has been tested with the most popular cards up to 1 GB. However, there
are many different card variants available and not all cards can be guar-
anteed to work in the RD55. The RD55 will not work with cards greater
than 2GB capacity or cards which use the High Capacity Secure Digital
(HCSD) standard.
Inserting and removing a card
To insert an SD card into your radio, lift up the left hand rubber cover on the
top of your radio and push the card label side forward and gold contacts
fi rst into the SD card slot until it clicks.
To remove the card push the card in slightly and it will pop out allowing
removal.
Note: The SD card should not be removed during a recording as damage
or corruption of fi les on the card may occur.
