RECORDING SETTING
A
RECORDING AREA SET menu
This describe how to make the various settings for each recording
area.
TOTAL CAPACITY display
This shows the total recording capacity of the hard disk. This display
cannot be changed except when the hard disk capacity itself is
changed.
With the initial hard disk setting, the normal recording area takes up
80%, the alarm recording area takes up 19% and the archive area
takes up 1% of the disk capacity. The upper limit is 10 GB (12.5% of
total capacity when using an 80-GB hard disk 6% of total capacity
when using an 160-GB hard disk), so you cannot set a value greater
than this.
The assignment of space to each recording area is displayed as a
percentage of the total. The normal recording area and alarm
recording area together can be set to a maximum of 99% of the total
space.
The archive area cannot be set manually. It is forcibly assigned to a
minimum of 1%. Accordingly, if the normal recording area and the
alarm recording area are set to a total of 85%, the archive area will be
automatically set to 15%.
For example, if the normal recording area is set to 0% and the alarm
recording area is set to 99%, normal recording images will not be
saved onto the hard disk. Only alarm recording images will be saved.
The recording capacity for each recording area should be assigned
according to the requirements of the particular recording location.
If an additional hard disk is added, the increased capacity will be
included in the TOTAL CAPACITY display.
Note:
•
If you change the assignment of space to each recording area of
the hard disk while recording is in progress, the images which
have been recorded up until that point will be erased. This is
because the hard disk itself is initialized during this operation, so
be very careful when making this kind of setting. If you need to
change the sizes of the recording areas for some reason, make
sure that you make a backup copy of the images on some other
medium such as a computer.
•
When the MIRRORING of the HDD SET setting has been set to
“ON”, the TOTAL CAPACITY display of RECORDING AREA SET
shows a smaller value for the hard disk capacity.
