Preparing the Recorder
ModelName: ICD‑TX50
PartNumber: 4‑300‑042‑11(1)
Turning the IC Recorder On
Turning the power on
Slide and hold the POWER•HOLD switch in the direction of “POWER” until 
the window display appears. The IC recorder is turned on.
Turning the power off
Slide and hold the POWER•HOLD switch in the direction of the “POWER” 
until the “Power Off” animation is displayed. The IC recorder is turned off.
  Hint
If there is no operation attempted for approximately 5 seconds in the stop mode, the 
display turns off automatically (in the power saving mode). If there is no further operation 
attempted for approximately 10 minutes, the IC recorder turns off completely (automatic 
power‑off function).
Using the standby function
Slide the POWER•HOLD switch in the direction of “HOLD” in the stop mode. 
The IC recorder enters the standby mode, minimizing the battery consumption 
of the IC recorder. You can resume operations immediately after you release 
the HOLD status by sliding the POWER•HOLD switch in the direction of 
“POWER.” This function is useful when you want to wake up the IC recorder 
quickly.
  Hint
In the normal stop mode, the IC recorder turns off automatically if there is no operation 
attempted for 10 minutes. In the standby mode, on the other hand, the IC recorder turns 
off automatically if there is no operation attempted for 24 hours.
