FR-2
Field Memory Recorder (Chapter 2: Before using the FR-2)
Batteries are not supplied with the FR-2, therefore, if you wish to operate the FR-2 on
batteries, purchase appropriate batteries.
<Notes on using batteries>
* Use alkaline, Ni-Cd, or Ni-HM batteries. Do not use manganese batteries.
* Use new batteries (or fully charged batteries) when replacing batteries.
* Do not mix old and new batteries together.
* Use the same type of batteries in the FR-2 at one time.
* Do not use leaked batteries.
<Notes on using rechargeable Ni-Cd/Ni-HM batteries>
* The FR-2 does not provide battery charging facility. To charge rechargeable Ni-Cd or
Ni-HM batteries, use an appropriate battery charger for the battery type and follow the
instructions of the charger to fully charge batteries.
About power supply
The FR-2 is powered either by eight AA-type batteries (alkaline, Ni-HM or Ni-Cd) or by
the AC adaptor (Fostex Model AD12-1300, optional).
Ask your local Fostex dealer or sales office for purchasing the optional AC adaptor.
<Note>:
Make sure that the FR-2 power switch is set to "OFF" when changing batteries or
when disconnect the AC adaptor from the unit. The unit continuously accesses data when
the power is on, so the memory contents may be reset by the sudden power interruption.
Operating on batteries
• Inserting batteries
<Important! (Do not forget to make the following setting.)>
After inserting (or replacing) batteries and turning on the FR-2, be sure to select the battery
type (Ni-HM, Ni-Cd or Alkaline) to match the batteries inserted using the "Battery Type"
menu item on the Setup menu in the MENU mode. If the batteries in the battery compart-
ment do not match the battery type setting, the error tone function, etc. may not work
correctly because of the voltage difference.
See page 87 for details about how to set the battery type.
1) Remove the compartment cover on the bottom panel of the FR-2.
Use a coin, etc. to loosen the screw and remove the compartment cover.
