File Number Reset Function Setting - Sanyo Xacti VPC-S1 Instruction Manual

FILE NUMBER RESET FUNCTION SETTING

If a reformatted card is used, the file name (image number) of the captured
image automatically begins from 0001. If the card is subsequently
reformatted, or if a different reformatted card is used, the file names again
begin from 0001. This is because the file number reset function is set to ON,
and consequently it results in more than one card containing images with the
same numbers. By setting the file number reset function to OFF, even if the
card is reformatted or the card is replaced with another card, the consecutive
numbering of file names continues from the last number recorded by the
camera.
