To properly remove media, hit the SLOT button. You will note that the information for the Clip
in the upper left hand corner of the UI now states "N/A", as does the Reel and where the
available percentage of the media is displayed, it now reads "NoSlot". You will also note that
the LED is no longer lit. This means that it is now safe to remove the media. To remove the
storage module media, simply push in and hold the Media Release button on the upper left
hand corner of the unit using your left hand while pulling the media out of the unit with your
right hand. Note: the Media Release button is not an eject button, you need to hold it in while
removing the media.
With the media removed, you can now connect the media to your computer to copy or clone
the contents or even begin working with the material from the media directly and
immediately. Note: making back-ups of media is always recommended.
To re-insert the storage module media in Ki Pro, simply line up the media with the
manufacturing information label facing down, and the AJA logo on the casing facing up. To
make inserting the media as easy as possible, you might want to first line up the media with
both hands, and then use both thumbs to guide the media into place. You will hear a clicking
of the clutch that holds the media in place when it is fully inserted. You may notice that the
"MEDIA MOUNTING" prompt appears again in the UI briefly.
Once the media mounts, you will see the clip name, the remaining space available on the
media, the reel number and the green LED will be lit.
Alarms
Ki Pro features a variety of alarms to help you diagnose the condition of the unit, possible
configuration issues, or possible signal issues. Here is a list of warnings and their meaning:
"WARNING Input Format Changed" prompt appears if a recording is started and the
signal is lost or is changed. If this occurs, Ki Pro stops the recording that is in progress.
"WARNING Record Format" may appear if there is no video input to Ki Pro. No
recording will be performed in this state.
"WARNING A/V Mismatch" may appear if SDI video is selected and HDMI audio is
selected or vice versa. Embedded audio, via SDI or HDMI, must be matched to the
video source. Analog audio can be used with any video input.
"WARNING Dropped Frames" may appear if media is underperforming and cannot
keep up with the data rate required to make a recording or perform a playback. If you
see this prompt during recording, you might consider backing up your current
recordings and formatting the media. For playback, you might simply re-attempt
playback.
"WARNING Media Low" will appear when the media only has 15% of capacity
remaining. Media must be switched out when it reaches 10% of capacity. With 10% of
media remaining, the "WARNING Media Full" prompt will appear.
"WARNING Media in Use" may appear if you try to remove the media by pushing the
SLOT button while an operation is still taking place. Wait for the operation to finish
and then try again.
