Powering off or resetting the C Controller system (including remote RESET) while
writing a user file to the standard ROM or CompactFlash card may corrupt the data or
generate a file system error.

following before powering off or resetting the system.

Writing data to a file being accessed is also not allowed.
When performing multiple operations to the same file, therefore, complete one
processing before starting another.
