Page 5 highlights

Version 1.03 Maintenance Items • Previously the 512MB setting of Max File Size did not work. This has been fixed. • Rare instances of no audio playback after quick transport operations have been addressed. • Previously recording would not stop at the end of the specified timecode day. This has been fixed. • Rare instances of the transport not stopping when timecode is stopped have been addressed • Rare instances of record incorrectly continuing over discontiguous timecode have been addressed • Previously the LCD screen would slow down when both LTC and word clock were connected. This has been fixed. • Previously when Trigger mode was set to Single, the operation of the unit could appear to slow down. This has been addressed. • Previously new a new project could not be created from a project template. This has been fixed. • Previously a Freewheel setting of 1 frame would operate as if set to Infinite. This has been fixed. Version 1.02 Hardware MicroDrive Media Unlike Compact Flash media, which has no moving parts, MicroDrive media is a small mechanical device. It is therefore adversely affected by vibrations that could cause the drive mechanism to skip. Such vibrations could be caused by loud sounds in the environment where the HD-P2 is located - they could be caused by running the built-in speaker at high sound levels - they could also be caused by excessive jostling when used with the shoulder strap. It is strongly recommended that Compact Flash media be used in situations where vibration, physical shock, or jostling is possible. One symptom of MicroDrive media being affected by vibration or shock is stopped recordings due to a buffer over run. LCD Ghosting If the LCD backlight is on for 16+ hours and/or the temperature exceeds 40C, faint ghosting of the LCD information may appear. It is not permanent and will go away when the temperature is reduced.

Such vibrations could be caused by loud sounds in the
environment where the HD-P2 is located – they could be caused by running the built-in

ghosting of the LCD information may appear.
