If any hard disk format errors are found when the power is turned on, the whole hard disk is checked automatically. If any further problems are found with the hard disk, the POWER indicator flashes. Please contact the place of purchase if you need to reformat the hard disk or make backups of any images. The hard disk is very sensitive to dust, vibration and shocks, and it should not be used in places near sources of magnetic fields. Be sure to observe the following points in order to prevent any loss of data.
•Do not subject the digital video recorder to shocks.
•Do not use the digital video recorder in places where it will be subjected to vibration or places which are unstable.
•Do not disconnect the power cord while recording or playback is in progress.
•Do not use in places which are subject to rapid changes in temperature (changes of around 10°C in an hour).
•If the digital video recorder is moved to a place with a large difference in temperature or a high level of humidity, condensation may form. If the digital video recorder is used with condensation inside it, operating problems may occur.
•Do not install the digital video recorder in places which are constantly vibrating, such as vehicles or trains.
The hard disk and cooling fan are consumables.•These parts should generally be replaced after 2 years of use (for the hard disk) or 3 years of use (for the cooling fan) at normal temperatures of 25°C. These periods of time are intended as guides only, and are not a guarantee of product performance.
For important recordings•Always check whether a recording has been recorded properly.
•In case a recording was not recorded properly with this because of faulty connections with other equipment or a correct playback is not possible, any claims for compensation will be declined.
•For important recordings, it is recommended to make a periodical backup copy for protection against loss from any malfunction or accident.
This unit has a
Be sure to observe the following points carefully when operating,
1 Do not subject the unit to shocks or vibration.
If the unit is subjected to shocks or vibration, it may damage the HDD or cause corruption of the data stored in the HDD.
•Do not move the unit while the power is turned on. Always be sure to turn off the power before removing the unit from or placing it onto the rack.
•When transporting the unit, pack it securely using the specified packing materials. In addition, use a method of transportation that minimizes vibration.
•When placing the unit down on a surface such as a floor, attach the specified feet to the base of the unit and place it down gently. If the feet are not attached, place the unit down very carefully so that it does not make any noise.
2 Do not move the unit for 30 seconds after turning off the power.
After the power is turned off, the disk inside the HDD will continue to spin for a brief period due to inertia, and the heads will be in an unstable state.
During this time, the unit is even more susceptible to shocks and vibration than when power is being supplied. Make sure that the unit is not subjected to even gentle vibration for at least 30 seconds after turning off the power.
3 Do not operate the unit when condensation has formed.
If the unit is operated when condensation has formed, it may cause operating problems.
If sudden changes in the ambient temperature occur, wait for the temperature to stabilize before operating the unit.
4 Notes when replacing the HDD
Be sure to follow the correct replacement procedure when replacing the HDD.
•HDDs that have been removed from their packaging may not operate correctly if they are subjected to any shocks or vibration. It is recommended that you place the HDD onto a soft, level surface with the printed circuit board facing upward after unpacking it.
•Be careful not to subject the HDD to shocks or vibration when removing and tightening screws as part of the HDD replacement procedure. Make sure that all screws are tightened securely so that they will not become loose.
The HDD is sensitive to static electricity, so you should take proper precautions to prevent static electricity buildup.
5 Handling the HDD unit by itself
If transporting or storing the HDD unit by itself, always be sure to pack it in the specified packaging first.
In addition, use a method of transportation that minimizes vibration. If the HDD becomes damaged, handle the unit and the damaged HDD that has been removed in order for it to be replaced carefully to prevent the problem from being aggravated until as the nature of the problem can be checked and analyzed.
