Series Recording

By connecting multiple units as show in the chart below and selecting REC•STANDBY in the HDD Repeat Record- ing setting, this unit can perform Series Recording. In Se- ries Recording, when the first unit’s hard disk has become full, the second unit automatically begins recording.

INFORMATION

In this example, when the first unit’s hard disk reaches its maximum storage capacity,

the second unit will begin recording; when the sec- ond unit’s hard disk reaches its maximum storage capacity, the first unit will begin recording by over- writing its hard disk. If you do not want the first unit to begin the over-writing process, then please you don’t connect the connection 1.

INFORMATION

Through use of the CALL OUT ter- minal, settings can be made so that a second unit

begins recording in the event that something goes wrong with the recorder and it cannot continue re- cording.

Operation during Series Recording

When the storage capacity of the first unit’s HDD reaches a pre-specified level, the second unit will begin recording. Conversely, when the second unit’s HDD capacity reaches

apre-specified level, the first unit will begin recording. Through this exchange, recording will continue uninter- rupted.
