1-6-2. Media that has been verified to
operate with this system
This system uses SDHC and SDXC cards for recording and
playback.
We provide a list of SDHC and SDXC cards that we
have verified for operation with this system on our
Information Products Division data recorders website.

You can also contact us. (For contact information, see the
last page.)
o
In this manual, SDHC/SDXC cards are referred to as
“SD cards”.
o
Prepare media for use only with the LX-1000.
o
To ensure stable recording, try to keep the total quan-
tity of recorded data to 1000 or less. Moreover, before
recording, confirm that the recording medium has
enough open space.
o
Do not use a computer to delete, move or otherwise
alter data recorded on an SD card. Doing so could
cause the LX-1000 to become unable to properly
record or play data.
1. Introduction
1-7. TAFFmat format
1-7-1. Type of files
The LX-1000 makes a binary-format data file and ASCII-
format header file each time recording stops or pauses.
Data file:
Contains data converted from
analog to digital, etc.
(binary format with “dat” file
extension)
Header file:
Contains recording conditions
and other information
Text (ASCII) format with “hdr”
file extension
Voice memo file*:
Contains voice memo data
WAV format with “wav” file
extension
GPS file*:
Contains GPS data
“gps” file extension
Index file:
Contains recording conditions
and other information
Text (ASCII) format with “hdx”
file extension
*Files are created when recorded.
1-7-2. File name
The file name is common to the data file and header file.
An ID number is added to the end of the specified file
name. When you specify a new file name, the ID num-
ber starts from 1. After recording is stopped or paused,
the ID number is automatically incremented each time
the recording restarts. If a data file with the same name
or same ID number already exists when recording, the
next ID number is used.
Set the file name on the LXK Navi File Settings Screen
or the RECORDING FILE Settings Screen of the remote
control unit (optional). For the file name, use up to
29 half-width alphanumeric characters. ID numbers
(starting from 001) with the set number of digits are
attached to file names.
When recording to an SD card, the number of digits is
fixed to 3, and the maximum number of characters is 32.
When recording to a computer, the number of digits
can be set from 3 to 5, and the maximum number of
characters is 32–34.
o
If the ID number exceeds the set number of digits,
recording will stop.
