otherwise change the recording time in the midst of
recording.
For precautions and setup related to LIVE DURATION, please see
Section 3-4-1, “Basic Menu Settings” (page 3-18).
Loop Recording
During loop recording, when the recording time exceeds
the time set for LIVE DURATION, the oldest recorded
material is overwritten, so that even when the length of the
recording exceeds preset recording time, the most recent
recorded images are always stored up to the time set for
LIVE DURATION.
Loop recording is performed by the following procedure:
1
Set the LIVE DURATION (menu 034) on the basic
menu for DTR-1 (and DTR-2) to the desired time.
2
Set DTR-1 LOOP REC (or DTR-2 LOOP REC) on.
3
Assuming it is okay to delete all material on this unit,
execute ALL ERASE (menu 099) on the basic menu,
and reboot the unit.
* If you don’t want to delete all material, change this unit
to the Panel mode, delete the “LIVE1” (and “LIVE2”)
material, the change back to the DTR+Panel (or
DTR+DTR) mode.
For basic menu operations, please see Section 3-4-2, “Basic Menu
Operation” (page 3-23).
Note
Once material has been recorded, loop recording cannot be
turned on or off until the recorded material is erased.
