Zaxcom ZFR 200 / 300 Extended Menu

IFB Record Beep

The IFB record beep is an audible beep that is heard on the ZaxNet confidence audio only. When the record

beep is set to ON, and the ZFR is recording, the audio sent to the ERX via ZaxNet will have an audible beep,

in 20 second intervals, giving you conformation that the ZFR is indeed recording. The beeps will only be

heard in the ERX and will not be recorded on the card.

Power-Up Mode

This menu sets what happens to the keys on the face of the ZFR after power-up.

• LOCKED – After power-up has completed, the transmitter will automatically go into lock mode and the

keys will be locked to prevent accidental changes to the settings.

• UNLOCKED – After power up the keys will remain unlocked. If you are using this mode you can always

lock the keys by going in to the lock screen in the Main Menu.

Please note to unlock the keys at any time simultaneously press the MENU and INC keys.

SD Card Format

This menu will only appear if a card was inserted prior to booting up

The Micro SD card is erased and formatted from this menu. Please note that even though many cards are

sold preformatted, you must format the card in the ZFR prior to any recording. Only cards formatted in the

ZFR will work properly.

Before formatting the card, you may want to name the ZFR. When you name the ZFR that name is included

in the recorded file names. By naming the ZFR it makes it easier to differentiate files from different

recorders. So for example you can name the card with the talents name or any other unique identifier. The

card name menu is located at the end of the extended menu.

To Format an SD Card:

1. With the power off, insert the memory card into the media slot with the card label to the back of the

unit. Press the card all the way in until it “clicks”.

2. Power up the ZFR while holding the menu key to enter the extended menu.

3. Press the INC key until this menu appears.

4. Press the INC key 5 times.

5. You will see “FORMATTING FAT 32” displayed on the screen.

6. After about a minute the ZFR will displays “SUCCESS” or “FORMAT FAILED ERROR”.

7. If “SUCCESS” appears power cycle the ZFR.

8. If you see “FORMAT FAILED ERROR” try to re-format the card and if it fails again it is not advised to use

that card in the transmitter.
