Formatting an SD card [M8] “Init”
Formats an SD card. (“Formaing an SD card” on page 7)
SD card test function “tESt”
This function tests a SD card by automatically reading and
writing data to the card to determine whether the card is
compatible with the recorder. The recorder will decide that
a card is not compatible if the writing speed of the card is
slower than the speed required for recording. Executing this
test enables you to discover the recording conditions required
for the card. In this way, you can use the card more eciently.
The results of this test do NOT absolutely guarantee the
operation of a card. Even if the recorder determines that
your card can be used for recording based on the test
results, the card may still cause an error (such as “Crd -
bSy (Card-Busy)”) depending on recording conditions or
the application environment.
Note: Make sure that the SD card is inserted.
1. Press the [SYSTEM] buon to enter System mode (the
buon lights).
2. Press the [SD Card] buon (the buon is lit).
The display indicates “tESt” (test), and the [Set/OK] buon
and the [Clear/Cancel] buon blink.
Note: In other modes, pressing the [SD Card] buon makes
the display show the time available for recording.
3. To execute the card test, hold down the [Set/OK] buon
for approximately one second.
During execution, the display blinks “tESt,” and the [Clear/
Cancel] buon blink.
Note: Depending on the type of SD card, the test may take
some time.
If you decide to cancel the test, press the [Clear/Cancel]
buon.
When the test is completed, the display shows the test
result.
Good: Recording is possible on this SD card.
bad: Recording to this SD card has some limitations.
