Inserting Batteries

Lightly press down on the arrow and slide the battery cover open.
Insert two AAA alkaline batteries, observing the correct polarity.
Close the battery cover completely.
The hour indicator flashes, indicating the start of the Time/ Date setup process ( P.8).

Replacing batteries

When appears on the display, replace the batteries as soon as possible. When the batteries are depleted, flashes on the display, and the recorder shuts off. AAA alkaline batteries are recommended. It is recommended to set the HOLD switch to the HOLD position before you replace batteries to maintain the current settings (time/date, etc.). For your convenience,the recorder also logs the current settings in nonvolatile memory at hourly intervals. An optional Ni-MH Rechargeable Battery from Olympus can be used for the recorder. However, the battery level may not be indicated correctly when the Ni-MH Rechargeabel battery is used.
Be sure to stop the recorder before replacing the batteries. Unloading the batteries while the recorder is recording, erasing or otherwise accessing a audio file may corrupt the file. If you are recording into a file and the batteries run out, you will lose your currently recorded file because the file header will not be able to close. So, it is crucial to change the batteries once you see only one mark in the battery icon. Be sure to replace both batteries at the same time. Never mix old and new batteries, or batteries of different types and/or brands. Remove the batteries if you are not going to use the recorder for an extended period of time.

Setting Time/Date (TIME)

If you have set the time and date, information as to when a file is recorded is stored automatically with that file. The time and date should be set to ease file management tasks. The time and date setting is also needed to perform the alarm playback function ( P.20). When you install batteries for the first time or each time you replace the batteries, the hour indication will flash. In such a case, be sure to set the time and date by following steps 4 through 5 described below.

Recording Modes (MOdE)

You can select from among three recording modes: HQ (High Quality) mode, SP (Standard Playback) mode and LP (Long Playback) mode. Continuous recording time is approximately 1 hour and 31 minutes in HQ mode, approximately 2 hours and 17 minutes in SP mode and approximately 6 hours and 4 minutes in LP mode. The recording time shown above is for one continuous file. The available recording time may be shorter than specified if several files are recorded. (Use the remaining time and recorded time only as references.)
Press and hold the MENU/FOLDER button for 1 second or longer.

To ensure successful recording, make a test recording to choose appropriate microphone sensitivity before recording. If you choose HI, we recommend setting the recording mode to HQ or SP to best take advantage of the higher sensitivity. If you choose HI, background noise may be high depending on the recording conditions.
Using the Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA)
When the microphone senses that sounds have reached a preset volume, the built-in Variable Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) starts recording automatically, and stops when the volume drops. Particularly helpful for extended recording, the VCVA not only conserves memory by turning off recording during silent periods, but also makes playback more efficient and convenient.

Press the +/9 or /0 button until VCVA flashes on the display. Press the PLAY button.
The VCVA setup process begins.
Press the +/9 or /0 button to choose between On and OFF.
On : Will start recording in VCVA mode. OFF : Will resume recording in normal mode.
Press the REC button to start recording.
When the VCVA senses sound louder than the preset volume, recording starts a automatically. When it senses silence, recording automatically pauses after approximately 1 second, and the recorder enters Standby mode.
