3 – Preparation for Use
Preparing the power
Power source options
This recorder can be powered by the included TASCAM BP-
L2 lithium-ion rechargeable battery, two AA batteries, a
TASCAM PS-P520 AC adaptor (sold separately) or a TASCAM
BP-6AA external battery pack (sold separately). By using
both the lithium-ion rechargeable battery and AA batteries
together, the unit can be operated continuously for a long
time. Moreover, when, for example, the charge becomes
low in one type of battery, batteries can be changed while
the unit continues to operate. Alkaline and nickel-metal
hydride AA batteries can be used with this recorder.
NOTE
Manganese dry cell batteries (R6) cannot be used with
•
this unit.
This unit cannot recharge Ni-MH batteries. Use a
•
commercially available recharger.
Using the lithium ion battery
Open the battery compartment cover on the side of the
unit, insert the battery with the correct orientation into the
compartment, and then close the cover again.

Charging the lithium ion battery
There are two ways to charge the lithium ion battery.
Charging with an AC adaptor
Connect a TASCAM PS-P520 AC adaptor (sold separately) to
the unit's DC IN 5V connector. Charging takes about three
hours. (See “Using an AC adaptor (sold separately)” on page
21.)
Charging with a computer
Connect with a computer using the included USB cable.
Charging takes about six hours. (See “7 – Connecting with a
Computer” on page 47.)
NOTE
Connect this unit to the computer directly. Proper
•
operation cannot be guaranteed when using a USB hub.
When connected by USB, recharging occurs even if the
•
unit’s power is off.
When recharging through the USB port, the unit will
•
switch to USB connection mode, so other functions
cannot be used.
The
•
CHARGE indicator lights while charging and turns
off when charging is complete.

Using AA batteries
Open the battery compartment cover on the back of
the unit, install the two batteries with the c/–
orientation and close the battery compartment cover.
When using AA batteries, set the type of battery in order
to accurately show the amount of power remaining and
allow the unit to accurately determine whether power is
available for proper operation. (See “Setting the type of AA
batteries (AA BATTERY)” on page 51.)
Using both types of batteries together
If you install both the lithium ion battery and AA batteries,
you can set one as the main power source and the other as
the backup. (See “Setting the main battery source (MAIN)”
on page 50.) By doing this, when the amount of power
left in the main source becomes insufficient for operation,
the unit automatically switches to the backup source,
allowing continued operation. Moreover, you can change
the backup while operating using the main power source.
This allows you to continue to use the unit for long periods
of time. (See “Changing batteries when the power is on” on
page 50.)
