do not remove the “Memory Stick”, batteries, or the

AC adaptor (not supplied). Doing so may damage

the data.

Notes

• The unit starts accessing the data after it is turned on.

• If the unit is required to process excessive amount of data, “MEMORY STICK

ACCESS“ may be displayed for an extended period of time. This is not a

malfunction of the unit. Wait until the message disappears.

• “MagicGate Memory Stick”

• “Memory Stick Duo” (when inserted into the “Memory Stick Duo”

adaptor)

Notes

• The unit does not support the “Memory Stick PRO”.

• “MagicGate“ is a copyright protection technology that uses an encryption

technology. This unit does not support the MagicGate standard, and therefore,

recorded data using this unit is not subject to the protection of copyrights by

About the minimum recording unit

For recording a message, dividing a message, or creating a folder, the time

of the minimum recording unit is needed. Although the actual recording

time of a message may be less than that of the minimum recording unit,

the time of the message is counted as a minimum recording unit.

If the remaining recording time of the inserted “Memory Stick“ is less than

that of the minimum recording unit, you cannot divide a message or create

a folder in the “Memory Stick“.

About the maximum recording time and the maximum

number of messages or folders

A “Memory Stick“ saves not only recorded messages but also the

information about division and the number of folders. Therefore, as the

number of messages or folders increases, the amount of memory in the

“Memory Stick“ decreases.

The maximum recording time and the number of messages or folders

varies depending on this.

However, only in the case that you recorded up to the maximum recording

time, you can divide a message into three parts and delete the unnecessary

part in the message.
