RECORDING AREA SET3

SETTINGS <MAIN MENU 1>
Recording area allocations
The highest possible allocation for the normal recording
area and the alarm recording area is 99%.
The allocation for the archive area cannot be set
manually. This allocation will be automatically set to at
least 1%.
If the normal recording area is set to *1%
When the normal recording area is set to “*1%”, alarm
recording is possible for the complete memory available
in the alarm recording area. For “1%” and other
settings, up to 16,000 items are recorded per hard disk.
However, if set for *1%, “ALARM SEARCH”, “ALARM
THUMBNAIL SEARCH”, and “MOTION DETECTION
SEARCH” will not be available. Use “TIME/DATE
SEARCH” instead.
Furthermore, since the alarm skip function will also be
inactive, it will be necessary to carry out fast-forward
and fast-rewind playback.
