About Memo NOTE The track memo function’s memory system handles 1000 memos as one package (1000 memo – 5 packages). Since this memo system’s memory is deleted in units of packages, when one memo is deleted, the memo number remains and the memory area does not increase. Thus, the actual number of memos that can be stored is reduced. “Memo Full!” is displayed when 5000 memos are stored. In this case, the memory for one package worth of memos (1000 memos) must be deleted, starting from the oldest memos.
