<Notes>
When a P2 card is being accessed or it is being recognised
after insertion (P2 CARD ACCESS LED blinks in orange), do
not remove the P2 card.
If your AJ-SPX900E is not set to turn on the P2 CARD
ACCESS LED, before removing the card ensure that pre-
recording and/or voice memo recording have finished (the P-
REC indication has stopped blinking and the V mark or VOICE
REC indication on the viewfinder screen has turned off) after
stopping recording or playback.
If a P2 card being accessed is removed, the viewfinder
displays "TURN POWER OFF" and the AJ-SPX900E gives a
warning using an alarm and the WARNING LED. In addition,
all P2 CARD ACCESS LEDs blink rapidly in green. If this is the
case, turn the power off. For more information on warning
indications, see [7-3 Warning System].
If a P2 card is removed while being accessed, clips on it may
become irregular although the data will not be corrupted.
Check the clips and restore them if required. For more
information about how to restore clips, see [6-9 Restoring
Clips].
If a P2 card being formatted is removed, it may be not be
formatted properly. In this case, the viewfinder displays "TURN
POWER OFF". If this message appears, turn off the power,
then restart the AJ-SPX900E to reformat the card.
If a P2 card is inserted while another P2 card is being played
back, the inserted P2 card is not recognised and the P2 CARD
ACCESS LED for that card does not come on. Card
recognition starts when the playback ends.
<For Your Information>
The P2 CARD ACCESS LEDs may be set to stay off using the
menu option ACCESS LED. This option can be found on the
<SYSTEM MODE> screen, which is accessible from the
SYSTEM SETTING page.

To Prevent Accidental Erasure of P2 Card Content
To prevent the content of a P2 card being accidentally erased,
position the write-protect switch on the P2 card at [Protect].
<Note>
Write-protect switchover can be performed while the card is
being accessed (during recording or playback), but does not
take effect until access to the card ceases.
