ADDENDUM

This document contains the additional instructions described in the Operating Instructions (book), the Network Operating Instruction (PDF) and Network Setup Instructions (PDF) to operate the additional features. Refer to the following for the corre- sponding pages and descriptions.

File Size Calculation before Starting Copying

Before starting copying recorded images manually on the HDD copy area or the external recording device, it is possible to cal- culate approximate size of the recorded images to be copied.

Operating Instructions (book)

Notes:

Add this step between steps 3 and 4. (page 53)

After completing the settings for data copy in step 3, move the cursor to the SIZE button using the arrows button and press the SET button to start the recorded images size cal- culation.

(Skip this step when it is unnecessary to calculate approxi- mate size.)

When calculation is complete, the following window will be displayed.

COPY DRIVE: Destination disk

SIZE: Size of the recorded images to be copied

Available disc space: Available disk space size of the destination disk

When the available disk space is smaller than the size of the recorded images, the recorded images will be copied corresponding to the available disk space.

To display to the DATA COPY window again, press the SETUP/ESC button.

When the available disk space is displayed as "--KB", check the following.

Check if "Disk End Mode" is set to "STOP". (page 136)

When the available disk space is displayed as "**KB", check the following.

Check if the selected COPY DRIVE is correct.

Check if the media is formatted correctly.

When the size of the recorded images is displayed as "00KB", check the following.

Check if at least one camera channel is selected or if images had surely recorded in the designated time range.

When failed to calculate size of the recorded images because of the HDD access error, etc., the message "Failed!" will be displayed.

If this message is displayed repeatedly, contact the dealer.
