8 HARD DISK CONTROL
8-1 Hard disk maintenance
When power is interrupted (disconnection, power failure, etc.) in the Record mode or Sensor Record Standby mode, the recording information on the hard disk may be damaged. This may cause problems in recording and playback.
To repair the hard disk, two disk scan functions (<AUTO SCANDISK> and <MANUAL SCAN DISK>) are available.
●<AUTO SCANDISK>
If <AUTO SCANDISK> is set to “ON”, the disk is scanned automatically whenever the power is turned on or restored. To cancel disk scanning, press the [CLOCK RESET/CLEAR] button.
●<MANUAL SCAN DISK>
Execute <MANUAL SCAN DISK> from the menu. This cannot be canceled once it has been started. Do not turn the power OFF while this operation is in progress. When <AUTO SCANDISK> is set to “OFF” and the power is kept turned on for long- time recording, be sure to execute <MANUAL SCAN DISK> regularly.
It is recommended to perform <MANUAL SCAN DISK> once a month if recording is executed continuously.
