3-5-6 To Eject Discs With the Unit
Powered Off
As an emergency measure, disc cartridges can be removed
with the unit powered off. However, the cover must be
removed. This operation should always be done by a
trained service technician.
For details, refer to the Maintenance Manual.
3-5-7 Handling of Discs When
Recording Does Not End
Normally (Salvage Function)
Recording processing does not end normally if, for
example, the POWER switch on the rear panel is turned off
during recording, or if the power cord is disconnected
during recording. Because the file system is not updated,
video and audio data recorded in real time is not
recognized as files and clip contents recorded up to that
point are lost.
However, this unit has a salvage function which can hold
losses to the minimum by reconstructing clips on such
discs.
Note that no recorded clip contents are lost when the on/
standby switch on the front panel is set to standby, because
the unit does not enter standby mode until after the end of
recording processing.
Notes
• Do not set the POWER switch on the rear panel to off
until recording processing has finished and the ACCESS
indicator has gone out.
