ups of data stored in the unit’s hard disk drive.
Estimating the possible recording during
when using the Timer
Please note when using the Timer that there may be
instances where, because of recording interval, im-
age quality, and audio recording settings, there is in-
sufficient recording space on the uint’s hard disk drive
to complete the Timer recording as programmed.
Please note that when the recording interval set-
ting differs on the RECORDING SET UP screen and
TIMER PROGRAM screen, the possible recording
duration will differ from the duration displayed in ESTD
TIME on the RECORDING SETTING screen.
When setting the Timer for multiple programs, please
refer to the Recording time table on page 71 to con-
firm the amount of hard disk space the recording du-
ration will take up under different setting conditions.
