Locking Image And Audio Files - Minolta Dimage Dimage Xi Instruction Manual

Locking image and audio files

Single, multiple, or all image or audio files on the memory card can be locked. A locked
file cannot be erased by a playback menu delete function. Important images should be
locked.
The lock option has four settings:
This frame - The frame displayed or highlighted in playback mode will be locked. If the this-frame
option is used with a locked image, the image will be unlocked.
All frames - All image and audio files on the memory card will be locked.
Marked frames - To lock or unlock multiple files. When this setting is chosen, the frame-selection
screen will be displayed. Use the left and right keys to highlight the image or audio recording to be
locked. Pressing the zoom lever up will mark the frame with the key icon. To unlock a file, highlight it
with the yellow border and press the zoom lever down; the key icon will disappear. Continue until all
the files to be locked are marked. Press the enter button to lock the marked frames, or press the
menu button to cancel the operation and return to the playback menu.
Unlock frames - All files in the folder will be unlocked. When selected, a confirmation screen will
appear; highlighting and entering "Yes" will unlock all files on the card.
Locking an image will protect it from a delete function. However, the formatting function (p. 70) will
erase all data on a memory card whether locked or not.
