Mega Pixel Camera Compatibility and Capacity

The recorder can record high-definition images (mega pixel camera images) in SXGA (1280 x 960) JPEG four times that of the existing VGA (640 x 480). This makes it possible to record a wide angle of view and to zoom in without fuzziness to check things.

HDD Space Management

The HDDs in the recorder are virtually divided in the 4 image areas shown below (refer to the Setup Instructions (PDF file)).

You can set only one area for each HDD.

You can install up to 9 HDDs to record high-quality images for long periods of time. Plus, you can add up to 5 extension units.

You can check the remaining capacity for each area on the Setup menu.

Replace HDDs

Replacement is Easy

You can install and remove HDDs by opening the front panel.

If more than two HDDs are installed, replacement can be done without stopping recording. Instructions are shown on the LCD to reduce misoperations, and make maintaining and replacing HDDs easy.

Use the special HDD canister provided to install the HDD.

The HDD unit is an HDD that is in the special canister. The HDD units can be easily installed or removed from the HDD bay slots inside the front cover.

*Contact your dealer for information on purchasing and replacing HDDs.

(2) Event Recording Area

Area for recording when events occur.

Post-event recording/emergency recording

(3) Pre-event Recording Area

Note:

The HDD provided in the recorder at the factory is initialized as normal recording area. Unformatted HDDs inserted into the recorder are automatically initialized as normal recording area.

Recording/playback is not possible if only the Pre-event Recording Area and the Copy Area are created. Create either one normal recording area or event recording area.

If a normal recording area is not created, manual and schedule recordings are recorded to the event recording area. Also, if an event recording area is not created, event and emergency recordings are recorded to the normal recording area.
