Location Recorder Model PD606
Chapter 8: MENU mode/SYS SETUP menu
The “Max file length” menu item sets the maximum recording volume of a file.
This setting is important especially for exporting audio file data of the unit to your PC, because
each PC has the limitation of the volume of a file to be imported.
The setting is stored to the Flash ROM of the unit.

Maximum file length setting [Max file length]
<Note>:
The remaining recordable time of the file which is shown during recording
is calculated based on the “Max file length” setting. For example, if the remaining
space of the disk is 4GB or more while “Max file length” is set to 4GB, the remaining
recordable time of the file is calculated based on 4GB. If the remaining space of the
disk is smaller than the “Max file length” setting, the remaining recordable time of
the file is calculated based on disk remaining space. For example, if “Max file length”
is set to 4GB while the remaining space of the disk is 2GB, the display shows the
remaining time which is calculated based on 2GB.
