LX Stand-alone Operations
Create a setting of the recording device, file name, and others in LX Navi before starting to record. The last
settings specified by LX Navi are stored in the LX main unit even if the power is turned off. When the LX is
removed from the PC, the LX operates according to those settings.
■ Cautions on Operating as a Stand-Alone Device
IEEE 1394 enables hot-pluggable connections, so that the LX main unit can be connected or disconnected
while the PC is powered on. (However, do not disconnect the LX main unit while it is communicating with the
PC.) When the LX main unit is disconnected, LX Navi outputs an error message and terminates. In such a
case, if you reconnect the LX main unit and restart LX Navi, the LX main unit can again be recognized.
When moving the LX main unit, remove the media before turning off the power. Moving the unit while the
media is inserted may result in damage.
When media recording, ensure that the media is inserted before the recording starts. If no media is inserted,
the recording cannot start. (The REC button has no effect.)）
When recording to memory, after recording stops and while the power is still turned on, connect to a PC and
copy the data to the media or the PC. If you record data again, or power off the main unit before copying, the
data in memory will be lost. If you again record data or power off the main unit before copying, the data in
memory will be lost.
When recording to memory using LX as a stand-alone device, do not select the Auto Saving option (File,
New, and then Auto Saving). When recording to memory, the system does not know how much free space
is left on the media and so there is a danger that some data might be lost when saving. Also note that, even
if the Auto Saving option is selected, powering off the LX resets this option to the disabled status.
