Samsung SMX-C100RP Benutzerhandbuch

English

Format

The format function completely deletes all files and options on the storage media, including protected files.

You can format (initialise) recording data in the storage media. You have to format the pre-used storage media or 

newly purchased memory cards with this camcorder before using them. This enables stable speeds and operation 

when accessing the recording medium.  

 

"Memory" Formats the built-in storage media. 

None

Formats the memory card.

None

File No. 

File numbers are assigned to recorded files in the order they were recorded.

 

Assigns file numbers in sequence even if the memory card is replaced with another one 

or after formatting, or after deleting all files. The file number is reset when a new folder is 

created.

None

Resets the file number to 0001 even after formatting, deleting all files or inserting a new 

memory card. 

None

 When you set 

"FileNo." to "Series", each file is assigned with a different number so as to avoid duplicating file 

names. This is convenient when you want to manage your files on a PC.

  Do not remove the recording medium or perform any other operation (such as turning off the power) 

during formatting. Also, be sure to use the provided AC power adaptor, as the recording medium may 

be corrupted if the battery becomes exhausted during formatting. If the recording medium becomes 

corrupted, format it again.

A memory card with the protection tab set to lock will not be formatted.  ➥page 41

If there is no storage media inserted, it cannot be selected and will be dimmed on the menu.
