Other convenient functions
■Power failure compensation circuit
The unit is equipped with an internalized power failure com- pensation circuit. When the unit has been charged for 48 hours (full), the date, time, timer record settings, and menu settings are kept up to 1 month without power. The accu- racy of the time will decline if the power plug is not con- nected to the wall outlet for and extensive period. In this case, it is recommended to check the current time setting.
■Power failure reset recording
If there is a power failure during recording or when turning OFF the MAIN switch, the recording will resume after the power is restored. If there is a power failure during timer recording, the recording will resume after the power is re- stored when within the set time period of the timer. For alarm recording, recording will stop even within the set recording time.
If there is a power outage while recording, video and audio of up to 6MB from immediately before the power outage will not be recorded.
If there is a power outage while alarm recording or emergency recording, alarm recording and emergency recording will be released after power is restored.
When recording is started, “REC ON” is registered in <WARNING LOG LIST>. However, “REC ON” will not be registered when recording is resumed after power is restored.
The playback video at the start position where re- cording is resumed after a power failure may be dis- turbed and the search function may not operate prop- erly.
■Log function for when power failure occurs while the unit is in operation or the MAIN switch on the rear of the unit is turned OFF
In the event of power failure or the MAIN switch on the rear of the unit is turned OFF, up to 1000 items (includ- ing the time of failure and warning log displays as well as other warning items) are saved in the <WARNING
LOG LIST> ( 
see pages 54,55), and are displayed in red on the screen.
For power outages that occur while timer recording is standing by,

♦MIRRORING
By saving the data in duplicate on two HDD’s with the same capacity, the risk of data loss due to an HDD crash is greatly reduced.
When using a MIRRORING function, two sets of HDD are required. It does not function in one HDD. Please consult with the retailer, when you add HDD.
