Before the SP-202 can use
a
newly
purchased
SmartMedia
card or
a
card which was used by another device, the card
must be formatted (initialized) by the SP-202.
I
Formatting a
memory
card
When you insert a
memory
card into the SP-202, the decimal
points of the BPM
display
will blink for a while, and the
unit
will temporarily
not
accept
button
operations or MIDI mes-
sages. The same
applies
when the SP-202's power is
turned
on with a memory
card already
inserted.

If
you record long samples to card memory, the backup
area will be
correspondingly decreased, but you
can
increase the
backup
area by recording short samples.

In
addition to the 16 samples of banks
C/D,
a
2 Mbyte mem-
ory
card (SmartMedia) can
store
(backup) up to 3
sets
of
internal data, and a 4 Mbyte card can store up to 7 sets of
internal data
in
a
backup
area.
Once this
portion
is used as
a
backup area, the possible
sampling time
will
be correspondingly less.
If
you wish
to use long
samples, either re-format
the
card
or
pur-
chase additional SmartMedia cards.

e Inserting
a
memory card
Making sure that the memory card (SmartMedia)
is
oriented
correctly, insert it all the way into the slot.
For details on using SmartMedia, refer
to
the
SmartMedia
owner's
manual.
As memory
cards, the
SP-202 is able to use two
types
of
SmartMedia (S2M-5/54M-5) sold by Roland.
S2M-5: 2 Mbytes
S4M-5: 4 Mbytes
