VR-716 makes use of Time Zone to perform automatic switch-
ing for Summer Time and Winter Time.
* The starting/ending time of Summer Time may differ from
the actual time in your local area.
1. Changing the Time Zone
After changing the Time Zone during operation, make sure to
format all the hard disks. If the hard disk is not formatted after
changing the Time Zone, the following problems will arise.
• During playback on main unit, web browser or 716 player,
the time display will be different from the actual recorded time.
• When performing file backup using 716 player, proper backup
cannot be performed because the actual recorded time data
is different from the time data specified by the player.
• The Alarm List will be different from the actual recorded time.
• The list for DVD-RAM copy will be different from the actual
recorded time.
2. Changing the time
The time change by Summer Time will be performed automati-
cally according to the setting value of the selected area in “TIME
ZONE” setting. On the day when switching from Summer time
to Winter time, there is a duplicated period where the same time
will be reached twice. During this period, do not perform date/
time setting (Menu/RS-232C/Front Display) and clock reset (Har-
monica terminal/Front Panel).
3. Searching
For the Alarm List of the duplicated period of Summer/ Winter
Time, the data will be displayed in the order of the actual record-
ing time starts.
On the day when switching from Winter time to Summer time,
there are certain times that do not exist. Do not perform “DATE/
TIME SEARCH” for these times.
When searching the image recorded during the duplicated pe-
riod on the day when switching from Summer time to Winter
time, two images with the same time will exist. The operation of
the various searches is shown below.
1)
“DATE/TIME SEARCH” in the “SEARCH MENU” on the main unit
It will search for Winter Time. When searching for the “Sum-
mer Time” of the duplicated period, search using the jog/
shuttle dial or [SKIP] buttons after performing
“DATE/TIME
SEARCH”
.
2) “ALARM SEARCH” in the
“SEARCH MENU”
on the main unit
It will search for Winter Time. When searching for the “Sum-
mer Time” of the duplicated period, search using the jog dial
or [SKIP] buttons.
3) Search using the web browser or 716 player
It will search for Winter Time. When searching for the “Sum-
mer Time” of the duplicated period, specify the starting time
at an earlier period before the duplicated period to search.
4. Playback
1) Playback using the main unit
When playing back the recording crossing the Summer and
Winter Time, the playback time (date/time displayed on the
OSD) of this portion may differ from the actual time.
2) Playback using the web browser or 716 player
When playing back the recording crossing the Summer and
Winter Time, the ending time and the clock counter displayed
may differ from the actual time.
5. Timer Programming
When the time changes from Summer to Winter or vice versa
during TIMER REC, the recording will be divided and recorded
as a different event at the changing point. In addition, a few sec-
onds will not be recorded at the changing point.
On the day when switching from Summer time to Winter time,
there is a duplicated period where the same time will be reached
twice.
Do not set the starting/ending time within the duplicated period
on the day when switching from summer time to winter time.
6. DVD-RAM COPY
1) Selecting the data list of the DVD-RAM
• The specified starting time search of the Summer/Winter
duplicated period will be searched as Winter Time.
•For the data list of the DVD-RAM of Summer/Winter dupli-
cated period, the data will be displayed in the order of the
actual recording start time.
• On the day when switching from Winter Time to Summer Time,
there are certain times that do not exist. Do not perform speci-
fied starting time search for these times.
2) Cutting of the DVD-RAM record
• The starting/ending time of the data crossing the Summer
and Winter cannot be changed. When copying, the original
starting/ending time will be copied.
7. PC environment settings
When searching or playing back from the web browser, set the
PC TIME ZONE setting to the same as the VR-716 “TIME ZONE”
setting.
8. The alarm list for mail notification
•For the message content of the mail notification, the local
time will be recorded.
• When duplicated times are recorded due to Summer Time,
to differentiate the message recorded in Summer Time or
Winter Time, check the time sent stated on the mail header.
