AC power supplied through the PS-P520 adapter (sold
separately) or batteries with sufficient remaining power. If
the power fails during formatting, the formatting does not
occur correctly.
Setting the main battery source
(MAIN)
When both the lithium ion battery and AA batteries are
installed, you can set one as a main power source and the
other as a backup. Usually the unit uses the main power
source.
When the remaining power of the main battery source
becomes low, the unit automatically switches to the
backup, allowing continued operation.
The battery source currently used and the amount of
remaining power it has are shown on the Home Screen.

source.
Options:

(lithium ion battery, default),
AA
CAUTION
The power turns off if the backup battery source does •
not have enough charge. In this case, all recordings,
settings and other data will be lost.
The power supply will not automatically switch from
•
the backup battery to the main battery. When operating
on the backup battery, reset the main battery selection
after changing it.
Changing batteries when the power is on
If both the lithium ion battery and AA batteries are installed,
you can change batteries while continuing to record and
use other functions.
NOTE
In the following sections, for simplicity we refer to the main
"battery" and backup "battery," even though the unit uses
two AA batteries. Both AA batteries should be changed
together.
Changing the main battery
8
Before changing the main battery, confirm that its charge
has become low enough that power has switched to the
backup battery.
The unit turns OFF if you remove the main battery while it
is being used.
If you must change the main battery even though it is in
use, change the setting so that the backup battery becomes
the main battery and confirm this operation on the Home
Screen first.
