3-5 Loop Recording
When two or more P2 card slots contain cards, this function
allows the target P2 card to be switched in order. Even when the
free space of a P2 card is used up, this function continues
recording while erasing existing data.
To use this function, the menu option LOOP REC MODE must
be set to “ON” The option LOOP REC MODE can be found in
the <REC FUNCTION< screen on the SYSTEM SETTINGS
page.
<Note>
z When the loop recording capability is used, each P2 card must
have at least one minute of free space.
z During loop recording, the P2 CARD ACCESS LEDs for all
target P2 cards illuminate in orange. Note that if any of the
target P2 card is removed, loop recording stops.
z When the menu option LOOP REC MODE is set to ON, the
viewfinder and display window both show “LOOP”.
However, when only one card is inserted, or when each card
has less than one minute of free space, the loop recording
capability does not work, even if the option LOOP REC MODE
is set to ON. If this is the case, the indication “LOOP” flashes
in the viewfinder and on the display window.
Terminating the Loop Recording Mode
You can terminate the loop recording mode by either:
z Turning off the POWER switch of the AJ-SPX900E; or
z Setting the menu option LOOP REC MODE to “OFF”.
3-6 Recording Review Function
When recording is paused, pressing the RET button
automatically locates the last two seconds of video just
recorded, and the viewfinder provides video playback.
After playback, the video camera-recorder is again ready to start
recording.
The picture location/playback duration can be increased to up to
10 seconds by continuously pressing the RET button. For short
clips, however, when the start of a clip is located, continuously
pressing the RET button does not play back any clips before that
clip.
The function of the RET button may be assigned to a desired
user button by using one of the menu options USER MAIN SW,
USER1 SW or USER2 SW. These options can be found in the
<USER SW> screen on the CAM OPERATION page.
When recording is paused, pressing the PLAY/PAUSE button
plays back the last recorded clip, from the beginning. After
completion of playback, the camera-recorder enters the stopped
state.
<Note>
When the OUTPUT SEL switch on the side panel is positioned
at [MEM], the video for REC REVIEW is output from the video
output connectors (VIDEO OUT and MON OUT connectors),
and also to the viewfinder.
Note that when a backup device is connected to back up the
video the pictures for REC REVIEW are backed up.
