width, or frequency response, that can be represented by the digital signal. To roughly estimate the

maximum bandwidth available for recording divide the sampling frequency by two.

Recording Media

The 552 records to a removable Secure Digital High Capacity (SD or SDHC) media. SD cards compat-

ible with the 552 require FAT32 formatting. To format media from the 552, press and hold the follow-

ing buttons in order:

• Stop key

• Battery Check Button

• Headphone Controller

Immediately following the above button sequence, SVEN announces “Formatting SD Card. Press

Battery Button if ok, press Stop to cancel.” To proceed with the formatting process, press the Battery

Check Button. To cancel, press the Stop key. If neither button is pressed in ﬁve seconds, formatting is

canceled.

When formatting, SVEN announces “Formatting please wait” and the REC LED illuminates a

constant yellow. Wait until SVEN announces “Formatting complete” and the LED turns off before

performing any other action.

Multi Media Cards (MMC) and Secure Digital eXtreme Capacity (SDXC) cards are not supported and

are not recognized by the 552.

After recording, the SD/SDHC card can be mounted to Mac or Windows based computers using

a SD Card Reader. The card will appear as a mass storage device and its contents can be copied to

another storage device.

The SD slot is located on the 552’s Rear Panel. It is protected by a rubber cover. Gently pry the pro-

tective rubber cover from left to right to expose the SD Slot. Insert the SD card into the slot. The card

should glide smoothly into the slot. DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE. Push the card so that it seats

securely in the slot. To remove, push the card in to eject it then pull it out of the slot.

Press and hold the Battery Check button to hear remaining card space available on the inserted SD

card. SVEN automatically announces the remaining time when 15, 10, 5, and 2 minutes are remain-

ing on the SD card.
