Notes
You need a certain amount of free space in
the memory to divide a message. For more
information, see "System Limitations" on
page 67.
If 99 messages have been recorded in a
folder, you cannot divide a message in that
folder.
Once a message is divided, you cannot re-
combine the divided messages.
You cannot divide a message at the very
beginning (0.5 seconds from the beginning)
of the message.
When you divide a message into two, at the
point of division, the end of the first message
and the beginning of the second message
may be interrupted.
If you divide messages too frequently
while the IC recorder is recording them, the
following phenomenon may occur: The
operation indicator keeps flashing, and you
cannot operate the IC recorder for a certain
period. This is not a malfunction. Wait until
the operation indicator goes off.
