Recording is not possible if it is in this position. (Page 12) • There may be little free memory left on the P2 card. If so, save the data onto another media, and delete the data you no longer need; alternatively, replace the card with a new one. • The P2 card may be formatted incorrectly. Alternatively, the (Page 13) card you are using may not be formatted for use with the unit.
