Erasing files

About the recycle bin function

If you turn on the recycle bin function, when you erase a file on the unit, it goes into the
RECYCLE ( ) folder. Therefore, you can still recover the file from the RECYCLE ( ) folder
later. This is very useful when you accidentally erase a file.
When shipped, the unit has its recycle bin function turned on. If you turn off the recycle bin
function, when you erase a file or folder, the data is erased from the microSD card so that
you can no longer recover it later. To avoid accidentally erasing data, we recommend
that you turn on the recycle bin function. (
• The RECYCLE ( ) folder can hold a maximum of 199 files. If there are already 199
files in the folder, you can no longer erase any file. When this happens, either empty
the RECYCLE ( ) folder or recover some of the files from the folder.

• Regardless of whether the recycle bin function is turned on or off, files stored in
the M folder, when erased, do not go into the RECYCLE ( ) folder. Instead, they are
completely erased from the unit.
• If there are a lot of files in the RECYCLE ( ) folder, this may slow down the speed.
Therefore, we recommend that you regularly empty the RECYCLE folder.
• If the recycle bin function is turned on, when you erase files, the remaining recording time
displayed does not increase.
• When a file with index marks is moved to the RECYCLE ( ) folder, its corresponding
index file is also moved to the RECYCLE folder. (However, the index function cannot be
used within the RECYCLE folder.)
• When you format a microSD card, all files in the RECYCLE folder are also erased.
• When you turn off the recycle bin function, files already in the RECYCLE ( ) folder are
not erased.
• The RECYCLE ( ) folder appears on the list screen as "RECYCLE".
• If there is not enough free memory on the microSD card, you may not be able to move
files to the RECYCLE folder.
