RECORDING CLIPS
Before you proceed with this setup, refer to the “Before you Start”
section (page 24) for important setup and connection information.
The first step in making a recording is to decide where you want to store
the recording. The recording can be stored on the local removable drive,
optional fixed drive or on a remote disk (optional feature). You may also
wish to store the file in a particular directory, or even create a new
directory.
MOUNTING A REMOTE DISK
If your DGy 201 was provided with the optional Remote Disk Mount
capability, you have the ability to a mount a disk external to the DGy 201
over a network. Before beginning the process of mounting the remote
disk you will have to set up the NFS server on the remote device. Note
that DGy 201 supports remote disk mount activity only with Allegro (for
Windows PC platforms), or Linux based NFS servers. Allegro is a low
cost server for the Windows platform and can be downloaded from the
following web site: http://nfsforwindows.com/home
It is strongly recommended that you consult with your IT manager for
assistance before proceeding.
Use the following procedure to mount a remote disk.
1. Open the Clip Browser from the WCP Player Screen by click-
ing in the Clip Path section (see “Clip Browser Menu” on page
39)
2. Click on File in the Clip Browser tool bar
3. Click Network Drive ... from the File drop down menu.
4. Enter the path name to the remote disk in the Mount Network
Drive pop up menu (Figure 3-26).
The path name consists of two parts, the IP address of the
remote storage device, and the name of the shared space that
has been created on the device (known as the NFS name). You
should generally obtain this information from your IT manager or
network support specialist.
SExample:
If the IP address of the Network drive is 192.168.1.59,
and the storage area on the drive has been set up as
usr/dgy, enter the following into the Mount Network
Drive address line:
192.168.1.59:/usr/dgy
5. Click the Mount button
