Inserting an SD card
If you insert a commercially available SD card into the SP-404SX, you’ll be able to sample for longer times .
This section explains how to insert an SD card; however, when you purchase the SP-404SX, an SD card containing the factory-
set preload data is already inserted, so the procedure described here won’t be necessary .
Remove the card lock screw to detach the card cover!
When the SP-404SX is shipped, the card cover is locked by a screw installed at
the location marked “CARD LOCK” on the bottom panel . To remove the card
cover, you must fi rst use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the CARD LOCK screw .
The screw was placed there for stability during transportation from the factory;
you can discard it without reusing it .
NOTE
• Take care that the screw you removed is not accidentally swallowed by small children .
• When turning the unit upside-down, get a bunch of newspapers or magazines, and place them under the four corners or at both ends to prevent damage to
the buttons and controls . Also, you should try to orient the unit so no buttons or controls get damaged .
• Never insert or remove an SD card while this unit’s power is on . Doing so may corrupt the unit’s data or the data on the SD card .

card will disappear if you format the included SD card .
