Field Memory Recorder (Chapter 2: Before using the FR-2)
<Notes on the current card>
If a card is inserted in either one of the card slots when turning on the unit, the
unit automatically recognizes the inserted card as the current card, and ap
propriately set the "Select" menu item on the "Disk" menu in the MENU mode.
For example, if you insert only an ATA and turn on the unit while the "Select"
item is initially set to "CFC", the "Select" setting is automatically switched to
"PCMCIA".
If both CFC and ATA are inserted in the appropriate card slots when turning on
the unit, the current card is selected according to the "Select" setting (by
default, it is set to "CFC").
For example, if both CFC and ATA are inserted in the appropriate card slots
and the "Select" item is set to "PCMCIA" when turning on the unit, the ATA is
automatically loaded as the current card.
* How to switch the current card when inserting a card to the other slot
While a card is inserted in either of the card slots, you can insert another card to
the unused card slot and switch the current card.
Assuming that a CFC is currently loaded, the procedure below shows how to switch
the current card from "CFC" to "PCMCIA" after inserting an ATA.
2) While "[YES]" is highlighted, press the [ENTER] key.
Pressing the [ENTER] key releases the current card (CFC, in this case) and
starts loading the newly inserted card (ATA, in this case).
This operation automatically switches the setting of the "Select" menu item
(on the "Disk" menu in the MENU mode) from "CFC" to "PCMCIA".
While memory cards of both types are inserted to the appropriate
slots and the unit is turned on, you can select the current card using
the "Select" menu item on the "Disk" menu in the MENU mode. See
"Selecting the current memory card" on page 74 for details.
1) While the recorder is stopped, insert an ATA to the PCMCIA slot.
The screen as shown below appears, asking whether loading the inserted
ATA or not.
