This document adds or replaces information that 
has  been  added  or  changed  since  the  printing

MicroDrive Media

Unlike  Compact  Flash  media,  which  has  no 
moving  parts,  MicroDrive  media  is  a  small 
mechanical  device.  It  is  therefore  adversely 
affected by vibrations that could cause the drive 
mechanism  to  skip.  Such  vibrations  could  be 
caused by loud sounds in the environment where 
the HD-P2 is located – they could be caused by 
running the built-in speaker at high sound levels 

– they could also be caused by excessive jostling 
when used with the shoulder strap. It is strongly 
recommended that Compact Flash media be used 
in situations where vibration, physical shock, or 
jostling is possible.

One symptom of MicroDrive media being affected 
by vibration or shock is stopped recordings due to 
a buffer over run. 

LCD Ghosting

If the LCD backlight is on for 16+ hours and/or 
the temperature exceeds 40 degree Celsius, faint 
ghosting  of  the  LCD  information  may  appear. 
It is not permanent and will go away when the 
temperature is reduced. 

Mic Switch Operation

The 

MIC

 switch must be set to 

EXT

 for the built-

in speaker to function, even if the individual 

LEFT 

INPUT

  and 

RIGHT  INPUT

  switches  are  set  to 

LINE. This is to prevent feedback from occurring 
between the built-in mic and the built-in speaker.

FireWire Power

Some PCI FireWire cards have been found to have 
a power connector on them that can take power 
from a disk drive-style power connector. Such 
cards rely on that power connector for to make 
good voltage available to a device connected to 
their FireWire connection. 

If your PCI based FireWire card has a connector 
for  a  disk  drive-type  power  plug,  it  must  be 
connected  for  proper  FireWire  voltage  to 
be  available  to  the  HD-P2  via  the  FireWire 
connection.
