recognized as files, and clip contents recorded up to that
point are lost.
However, this unit has salvage functions which can hold
losses to the minimum by reconstructing clips on such
discs. There is a quick salvage function which executes
automatically and a full salvage function which you can
execute as required.
Quick salvage:
Clips are reconstructed on the basis of
backup data stored in nonvolatile memory and
markers recorded on the disc. Processing time is about
5 seconds.
Quick salvage executes automatically if the unit is
powered on with a disc still loaded after recording
was interrupted by power off.
Full salvage:
Clips are reconstructed on the basis of
markers recorded on the disc. Nonvolatile memory
cannot be used, so processing takes longer than for a
quick salvage (about 30 seconds, although it depends
on the state of the disc).
You are prompted to execute a full salvage whenever
you insert a disc that was removed manually from a
powered off device after interruption of recording by
power off.
Note that no recorded clip contents are lost when the on/
standby button on the front panel is set to standby during
recording, because the unit does not enter standby mode
until after the end of recording processing.
• Even after recording finishes, do not set the POWER
switch on the rear panel to off until the ACCESS
indicator has gone out.
• These functions salvage as much recorded material as
possible after an unforeseen accident, but 100%
restoration cannot be guaranteed.
• Even when these functions are used, it is not possible to
recover data from immediately before the interruption of
recording. The amount of data lost is as follows.
Quick salvage:
From 2 to 4 seconds of data before the
interruption of recording.
Full salvage:
From 4 to 6 seconds of data before the
interruption of recording.
(More data may be lost when the unit is subject to
vibrations, and when you switch frequently between
recording and paused.)
• You are prompted to execute a full salvage every time
you insert a disc that has not been salvaged or power the
unit on with such a disc loaded.
• No recording is possible on discs containing clips that
have not been salvaged, although it is possible to play
back the normally recorded sections. Recording
becomes possible if you format the disc, but this erases
all of the original recorded content.
• If a “DISC Error!” alarm
appears,
recording may not have been completed successfully
when recording on the following devices. In this case,
restore the disc using the device last used to record to the
disc.
PDW-U1, PDW-U2,
PDW-1500, PDW-530, PDW-510, PDW-R1,
PDW-F70, PDW-F350, PDW-F330,
PDW-F75, PDW-F355, PDW-F335,
PDW-HD1500, PDW-HR1, PDW-700,
PDW-F1600, PDW-F800, PDW-HD1200, PDW-680
To restore clips with a full salvage
1
Insert the disc on which recording did not end
normally.
The message “Salvage?” appears.
To cancel the clip salvage
Press the RESET/RETURN button.
• The message “EJECT?” appears when “REC INHI”
is displayed. If the disc is write protected, eject the
disc, set the Write Inhibit tab to enable recording,
and then insert the disc again.
• This operation cannot be cancelled once it begins.
2
Press the PUSH SET knob.
Processing begins and the message “Executing.”
appears.
When processing finishes, a message appears,
displaying the results.
If the message reads “Incomplete!”, the clips that
failed were lost.
