Card Basics

The xD-Picture Card is a removable recording media. “Card” in this manual refers to the xDPicture Card.

Compatible cards

The removable card can be used to store different kind of data. Since the card has larger memory capacity than a diskette, it can be used to transfer data between different PCs. The recorder supports cards with memory capacity between 16 to 512 MB.

1 Index area

You can write down the card’s contents.

*1: Available recording time for one continuous file. Available recording time may be shorter if many short recordings are made. *2: Recording in SHQ mode is enabled only when a stereo microphone is used. When using the stereo microphone, only SHQ

mode is available.

*3: Total recording time of two files. The maximum recording time per file is 26 hours 40 minutes in HQ mode, and 99 hours 59

minutes in LP mode.

Notes

• When initializing (formatting) a card, confirm that no necessary data is stored on the card beforehand.

Initialization completely erases the existing data on the card.

• Cards used in a recorder must be formatted in the same recorder first unless formatted with a CAMEDIA series Olympus digital camera.

• The card has a service life. When reaching the end of its life, writing or erasing data on the card will be disabled. In this case, replace the card.

• If you use a PC card adapter compatible with the card to save or delete some data on the card, the maximum recording time on the card may be decreased. To recover the original recording time, initialize/format the card in the recorder.

• Olympus will not be held liable for any data corruption or loss due to misuse of media card.

.................................................................................................................................................................

Notes

• Be sure to stop the recorder before replacing the batteries. Unloading the batteries while the recorder is in use may corrupt the file. If you are recording into a file and the batteries run out, you will lose your currently recorded file because the file header will not be able to close. It is crucial to change the batteries once you see only one Hash mark in the battery icon.

• Be sure to replace both batteries at the same time.

• Never mix old and new batteries, or batteries of different types and/or brands.

• If it takes longer than 1 minute to replace dead batteries, you may have to reset the time when you load

fresh batteries (☞ P.12).

• Remove the batteries if you are not going to use the recorder for an extended period of time.

Replacing batteries

The battery indicator on the display changes as the batteries lose power.

→ → →

When appears on the display, replace the batteries as soon as possible. When the batteries are too weak, the recorder shuts down and “BATTERY LOW” appears on the display. AAA alkaline batteries are recommended.

An optional Ni-MH Rechargeable Battery from Olympus can be used for the recorder (☞ P.81).

Using the AC Adapter

Plug the optional AC adapter (Olympus Model A321 or A322) into household power outlet and connect the power plug to the recorder’s power connector (DC 3 V) as shown in the illustration. Always stop recording before connection. Otherwise it may not be possible to play back the voice data being recorded.

Warning

• Always stop recording before connection or disconnection.

• When the AC adapter is not in use, disconnect the power supply plug from the power outlet.

• Use only the correct power supply voltage as indicated on the adapter.

• Do not use the AC adapter when connecting the recorder to the USB port.

Using the AC Adapter

Setting Time/Date (TIME&DATE)

Recording

The recorder provides five folders, A, B, C, D and E, and each message recorded in a folder is saved as a Digital Speech Standard (DSS) file or a Windows Media Audio (WMA) file. These five folders can be selectively used to distinguish the kind of recording; for example, Folder A might be used to store private information, while Folder B might be dedicated to holding business information. Up to 199 messages can be recorded per folder.

Recording

Using the Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA)

When the microphone senses that sounds have reached a preset threshold volume level, the built-in Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) starts recording automatically, and stops when the volume drops below the threshold level. The VCVA feature help extend recording time and conserve memory by turning off recording during silent periods. This helps make the playback, with no lulls or dead space, more efficient

and convenient.

• To ensure successful recordings, prior testing and adjustment of the start/ stop actuation level is recommended.

Using the Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA)

Recording with External Microphone

To enhance sound quality during recording, use the stereo microphone (ME51S) or an optional external microphone. If a stereo microphone is used, recording in SHQ (Stereo High-Quality) mode is possible. Please note, when a microphone is connected to the jack on the recorder, the jack functional switch-over is made automatically.

Recording with External Microphone

Stereo microphone:

ME51S

Make sure that the recorder has stopped.

Connect to the jack on the recorder.

If an external microphone is connected to the jack on the

recorder, the built-in microphone is disabled.

Applicable external microphones

● Stereo microphone: ME50S(optional)/ME51S

When using a stereo microphone, the recorder will switch-over to SHQ mode automatically and recording in WMA format, noise-free sound can be accomplished. Stereo recording is only possible in SHQ mode.

● Remote controller microphone: MR12

MR12 contains a non-directional microphone. With a clip, you can attach the microphone on your jacket's pocket, etc. This microphone is used to record your voice or voices of people close to you.

● Noise-Cancellation microphone: ME12 (optional)

(Dictation microphone)

This microphone is used to record your own voice while minimizing surrounding noise.

..............................................................................................................

Notes

• Do not insert or remove a microphone into or from the jack while recording.

• If an earphone is connected to the remote controller recording is not

possible.

• If an earphone is connected to the remote controller EAR jack while recording, recording will stop automatically.

Listening While Audio Is Recorded (Recording Monitor)

If you start recording after inserting the earphone into the jack on the recorder, you can hear the sound being recorded. The sound volume on the recording monitor can be adjusted by pressing the VOL (+) or VOL (–) button.

Make sure that the recorder has stopped.

Connect the earphone to the jack on the recorder.

After recording is started, you can hear the sound being

recorded through the earphone.

.......................................................................................................

Notes

• Recording cannot be monitored during recording with an external

microphone.

• Recording level cannot be controlled using the volume button.

• When recording using the remote controller microphone, recording

cannot be monitored even though the earphone is connected to the EAR jack on the remote controller.

• When using the earphones, do NOT set the volume too high. Listening

at very high volume may lead to hearing loss.

Listening While Audio Is Recorded (Recording Monitor)

Recording Modes (REC MODE)
