System limitations

There are some system limitations of the IC recorder. Troubles as
mentioned below are not malfunctions of the unit.

Symptom

You cannot record

messages up to the

maximum recording

time.

You cannot add an

index.

You cannot erase the

indexes.

Cause/Remedy

•If you record messages in a mixture of SP and

LP modes, the recordable time varies from the

maximum SP mode recording time to the

maximum LP recording time.

•If there are a number of messages shorter than

the minimum recording unit (Approx. 16

seconds in SP mode and approx. 42 seconds in

LP mode), they are still counted as 16 seconds

or 42 seconds, so the remaining recording time

may decrease by more than the actual length of

the messages.

•Even when each message is longer than the

minimum recording unit, if the length of each

message cannot be divided by the minimum

recording unit, the remaining recording time

may decrease by more than the total length of

the messages.

•The sum of the number on the counter (elapsed

recording time) and the remaining recording

time may be less than the unit’s maximum
recording time (page 14).

•You cannot add an index in a folder which has

99 messages.

•If you add or erase indexes frequently, the unit

may become unable to add indexes.

•You cannot erase an index to combine different

recording mode (SP/LP) messages.

•If you add or erase indexes frequently, the unit

may become unable to erase indexes.
