RECORDING SETTING
AREA FULL RESET setting
When the normal recording area and alarm recording area of the hard
disk become full, the images in the recording areas will be
automatically overwritten, starting from the oldest images that have
been recorded.
However, you can change this setting to prevent overwriting of images
when the recording areas become full, at times such as when you
want to check or edit the recorded images. In this case you need to
specify each time that you want images to be overwritten in each
recording area. The following procedure describes the method of
doing this.
1
Set the OVERWRITE setting for the NORMAL RECORDING
AREA or ALARM RECORDING AREA to “OFF” in the
RECORDING CONDITIONS SET menu. (See page 53.)
This setting can be used to display the remaining recording area of
the hard disk on the screen. At the same time, the FULL or
ALARM FULL indicator at the front of the digital video recorder will
flash.
When writing to the hard disk is complete, you can use playback
operations to check the recordings.

the shuttle dial clockwise.
