This unit compresses voice data in “Memory Stick“ voice format (MSV
LPEC format: extension .msv). Voice data is saved in a VOICE folder in the
“Memory Stick“ together with message list (MSF) files that control voice
data information (for example, the order of voice messages).
You can play back and edit voice messages recorded on a “Memory Stick“
on a computer using the supplied “Memory Stick Voice Editor 2“ software.
See page 63 for details.
Note
When you connect the “Memory Stick“ to your computer, you can check the
contents using Windows Explorer. But use the supplied “Memory Stick Voice
Editor 2“ software to play back and edit messages.
z Notes on using a “Memory Stick“
• Recorded data may be lost or damaged in the following situations:
– If you remove the "Memory Stick", turn the power off, or detach the
battery for replacement when accessing.
– If you use the "Memory Stick" near static electricity or electrical noise.
• We recommend backing up important data.
