The Backup Program, which can be designated as an indi- vidual operation, can also be designated with the RECORD and POWER Programs. The following items apply when designating these multiple program modes.
1)There may be restrictions imposed by the other record- ing devices, it is recommended that adequate program checks are run before actual operation.
*) Precautions when connecting devices requiring time to halt startup (e.g., archive devices, tape recording devices etc.)
•Using the Backup setting’s designated time plus 5 min- utes (the halt startup time of the peripheral recording de- vices) as a gauge, set the unit so that modes do not change. (Refer to illustration 1.)
•Even when only designating the backup mode, add one minute or more to the backup operation time, and set other programs to start and stop. ( Refer to Illustration 2. )

♦ARCHIVE button operation
The transfer of data, for backup purposes, from the unit’s HDD to a peripheral recording device is performed in fixed data amounts each time. Data transfer begins when 30MB is recorded onto the HDD. Accordingly, even if the ARCHIVE button is lit, there are times when the operation of archive devices are stopped in order to reduce wear on these de- vices. To end the backup, please press the ARCHIVE but- ton one more time as the button remains lit even after the backup process is finished. The ARCHIVE button will start blinking when pressed, and will stop blinking when recorded
operation has been initiated with the ARCHIVE button. |
• When a recording malfunction, medium error, or system |
error occurs during Backup operation. |
