Outline of Functions

HDD

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.
