FR-2
Field Memory Recorder (Chapter 5: Recording/playback)
Making recording
1. Press the [REC STBY] key to make the unit in the record-standby status, and then
slide the [REC] key to start recording.
The FR-2 creates a new audio file ("File001") and starts recording.
By default, the real-time clock time data is given as the file name when an audio file
is created (for example, "B13h 24m 20s 19d...").
<Note>:
Using the "Default file name" menu item on the Setup menu in the MENU
mode, you can set the default file name given when an audio file is created to "de-
sired scene name + take number" (the "SCENE NAME + TAKE NUMBER" option) in-
stead of the real-time clock time data (the "DATE" option).
See "Setting the default file name" on pages 81 and 82 for details.
2. To stop recording, press the [REC STBY] key.
During recording, only the [REC STBY] key is valid. You cannot use the [STOP] key to
stop recording. If you press the [REW] key while holding down the [STOP] key after
stopping recording, the recorder locates to the beginning of the newly created audio
file. You can review the recording by pressing the [PLAY] key in this condition.
<Note>:
The digital input signal takes priority over the analog input signals.
Therefore, when the FR-2 is receiving only analog audio input signals, you can record these
analog input signals. However, when the FR-2 is also receiving a digital signal from the [DIGI-
TAL IN] connector as well as analog signals, you cannot record the analog signals.

<Note>:
Even if you use a memory card of more than 2GB size, the maximum recording
space for a file is 2GB. You can set the unit to generate the error tone when the remaining
time gets shorter than the specified time by using the "Error Tone" menu item on the Setup
menu in the MENU mode. See "Setting error tone output condition" on page 87 for details.
<Note>:
If you press the [REC] key without pressing the [REC STBY] key in advance
(i.e. the recorder is not in the record-standby status), it takes approximately one sec-
ond to start recording. To prevent missing the start of an important event to be
recorded, we recommend pressing the [REC STBY] key to make the unit in the record-
standby status before start recording.

After making the necessary switch/level settings for recording, you can start re-
cording. The following description is assumed that no recording has been made to
the current memory card ("<No Files>" is shown).
