Notes
Due to the limitation of the IC recording system, this unit records in the
minimum recording unit of approx. 4 seconds in SP mode (approx. 10 seconds
in LP mode), therefore the following symptoms may occur.
• When a message is shorter than the minimum recording unit, it is still counted
as approx. 4 seconds (or approx. 10 seconds) so the remaining recording time
will decrease by more than the actual length of the message.
• When the message is longer than the minimum recording unit, the remaining
recording time will decrease by more than the actual length of the message if
it cannot be divided by the minimum recording unit without a remainder.
•The sum of the number on the counter (elapsed recording time) and the
remaining recording time may be less than the unit’s maximum recording
time (64 minutes in SP mode and 150 minutes in LP mode).
Remaining memory indication
During recording, the remaining memory indicator decreases one by one.
When the remaining time of recording reaches 5 minutes, the last one of
the indication flashes. When the remaining time of recording reaches 1
minute, the selected display mode (page 34) and “REMAIN” will flash one
after the other in the display window. When the memory is full, recording
automatically stops and “END” will flash in the display window with an
alarm sound. To continue recording, first erase some of the messages (page
18).
Notes
• If you press zREC/STOP when the memory is full, “END” will flash with an
alarm sound. Erase some of the messages before you start recording again.
(Page 18)
• If you press zREC/STOP after you have recorded 99 messages, “END” will
flash with an alarm sound. Select another file or erase some of the messages.
