Handling of Internal
Storage/Professional
Disc When Recording
Does Not End Normally
(Salvage Function)
The processing for recording to internal storage/
Professional Disc does not end normally if, for example,
the main power switch on the rear panel is turned off
during recording, or if the power cord is disconnected
during recording. Because the file system is not updated,
video and audio data recorded in real time may not be
recognized as files.
However, this unit has a salvage function which can hold
losses to the minimum by automatically reconstructing
clips on the internal storage next time the unit is started.
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 main power
switch on the rear panel to off until the INTERNAL
ACCESS indicator has gone out.
• This function salvages as much recorded material as
possible after an unforeseen accident, but 100%
restoration cannot be guaranteed.
• Even when this function is used, it is not possible to
recover data from immediately before the interruption of
recording. The amount of data lost is about several tens
of seconds.
• If attempting to use media that requires salvaging as a
result of a recording operation on another device, a
message is displayed to salvage the card on the recording
device and the card is not mounted.
