intendedformakinghighqualityrecordofvoicemessagesintobuilt-inflashmemory.The
recordings can be further uploaded onto the PC. These voice recorders feature really
unique characteristics (the world's smallest size, maximum autonomy, high acoustic
sensitivity etc). The recorders are marketed as personal means of documenting audio
information providing protection against fake records as well as unauthorized access
to records. Recorders designed for home use by mass consumers.

*take into account that the autonomy specified is for 8kHz/8 bit mode, when sample rate
or capacity is higher autonomy is lower (for 16kHz/16 bit roughly twice for models with
rechargeable batteries, four times for models with batteries).

Record time in 8kHz/uLaw mode – 150h (300h; 600h; 1200h; 2400h - depending on model
index: 150HQ, 300HQ, 600HQ, 1200HQ, 2400HQ)
Interface: USB 2.0
Operating temperature range: 0…+50°C
Operation life: 3 years (The manufacturer reserves the right to refuse inrepair after the expiration of
recorder operation life).
Note! It is recommended not to use mode 22kHz for recording on to recorders with battery, because
operation in this mode requires very large currents. Often batteries are not designed for such currents
and the recorder records much less time than the one specified. Accordingly recording time in the
mode 22kHz depends greatly on the battery quality. If this mode is needed, please use batteries which
designed to work not with watches but with technique. 3
