Ki Pro Quad v5.2r3
Warning!
Since the Mains plug is used as the disconnection for the device, it must remain
readily accessible and operable.
Warning!
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the device.
Record to Pak media, a form of removable SSD media. The media is formatted as HFS+
and is native to the Mac OS file system. Media can be mounted on the Mac OSX desktop
for immediate editing and file access when used with the Pak Dock. To work with media
on Windows OS systems, third-party software such as Mediafour's MacDrive is
recommended.
Caution!
Failure to properly mount or dismount media, or an unexpected loss of power while
recording, can result in an unrecoverable data loss.
To format SSD media, the media must first be inserted into an empty slot on Ki Pro Quad
and/or selected using the SLOT button. Once the media is selected, follow these steps:
1. For media that has never been used in a Ki Pro Quad before, the "Warning Media
Unformatted" prompt may appear.
2. Press the STOP button
3. Press the MEDIA button
4. Press SELECT (up or down) repeatedly until you see the menu 16.1 Format Media.
5. Press ADJUST up arrow. Ki Pro Quad will display "FORMAT".
6. Press the ADJUST up arrow button. Ki Pro Quad will display "ERASE S1" (or S2).
7. Press and hold the ADJUST up arrow button for 2 seconds or longer and then
formatting will begin. (Select any other key to abort the format operation.)
Ki Pro Quad will display formatting progress, and when done, will display a
completion confirmation.
8. Press STOP to return to regular operation and use the newly formatted media.
When Ki Pro Quad media is removed and connected to a computer via the AJA Pak Dock,
the media will mount as a normal HFS+ file system. The REEL NAME parameter is the
name of the media that will appear when the media is mounted.
