All audio from the ZFR800 is placed on the Mini SD card. This card is formatted using the ZFR800
and uses a FAT32 file system. By using the FAT32 file system, all Mini SD cards can be read by
Windows and Mac OS computers.
Audio is recorded to the memory card as a single Broadcast WAV or .ZTF (Zaxcom Transcription
Format) file. To use this audio file, you must use ZaxConvert, a transfer and conversion utility
developed by Zaxcom. ZaxConvert is available for both Windows and Mac OS and freely available
from Zaxcom s web site at
http://www.zaxcom.com
. It reads and converts the audio from the Mini
SD card and places it on your computer.
Audio Quality
The high quality error free audio is always the utmost importance on the ZFR800. So when
recording, audio is always stored at 24-bit/48 kHz. The ZaxConvert utility allows you to convert
the file to 16-bits if desired, and a variety of different sample rates from the original 48˚kHz.
Audio Modes
There are two recording modes on the ZFR800. There is a loop mode and a conventional mode.
Loop Mode
The loop mode provides a way to continuously record audio. Once the media card is filled, current
audio replaces the previously recorded audio at the beginning of the recording. The table on the
previous page shows the media sizes and how much recording time is available before audio is
looped. When in the loop mode, the ZFR800 displays LREC on the front status display.
Conventional Mode
The conventional mode never replaces any audio on the media card while recording. When the
Mini SD card is full the recording is automatically stopped and you must erase or change the media
card to continue recording. When in the conventional mode, the ZFR800 displays REC on the front
status display.
Memory cards from 128 MB to 2 GB can be used in the ZFR800. A 2 GB card records a single
track of audio for eight hours without erasing any recorded audio on the card.
Important:
The ZFR800 will not record to the memory card if it is not present when the unit is powered up or if
it is removed with power on. If the card is ejected with power on the card must be reinserted and the
ZFR800 power cycled in order to resume the recording function.
