■Setting for Mirroring

Mirroring is the function that records camera images onto two hard disks simultaneously. In case one hard disk has a problem, image data will be stored on the other hard disk. The credibility of the disk can be enhanced.

It is recommended to activate the mirroring function for the first use of this unit.

When the mirroring function is activated with remaining recorded images in the hard disk, those recorded images in the hard disk will be deleted.

Important:

•The mirroring function can be configured only by two of the built-in hard disks.

•The size of the two hard disks used for the mirroring function must be the same.

•When using the RAID 5 function, it is impossible to acti- vate the mirroring function.

●Start mirroring

Do the following to activate the mirroring function.

zTurn on the power of this unit.

An image saying that the system check has been com- pleted will be displayed.

Press the SET button after the image is displayed.

Note: When the hard disk is replaced or removed, the "TOP MENU" of the "HDD DISK MENU" will be auto- matically displayed.
