System Default Settings

When connecting the UPS to the PRV-LX1, be sure to disconnect the power to the PRV-LX1 first, and use the cord supplied with the UPS to connect the two units. If the connection is made after the PRV- LX1 has booted up, the shut-down operation may not occur properly.

Before using the unit with a UPS, be sure to consult the operating instructions accompanying the UPS product.

System Information

Go to SET UP section = [System] = [Information] to confirm the following system information:

System version (application version / OS version) Total power-on time (hours)

Hard disk drive (HDD) access time (hours) DVD-R/RW Drive read/write time (hours) Service information

Note:

The Delete and Format commands provided with the unit do not completely delete all data on a hard disk.

Thus discarding or transferring a USB HDD to a third party when hard disk data has been deleted using these functions runs the risk of placing backed up image data into the wrong hands. To prevent such a risk, use commercially available software to wipe the hard disk clean or request a dealer to do so. Consult your USB HDD manufacturer for details.

SET UP section = [System] = [Information]

Note:

The number in service Information [Service Info] indicates the result of hard disk fault diagnosis.

0Hard disk is operating normally.

1, 2 Hard disk operation requires caution.

3, 4 The hard disk may crash. Take it back to the dealer’s at the earliest possible opportunity.

This information is only a guideline. Contact your dealer when the hard disk does not seem to run normally regardless the information that appears. Do not leave important data on the hard disk but save it to a DVD-R/RW as DVD-Video disc.

HDD Tools

The SET UP section = [System] = [HDD Tools] command allows you to format and perform file checks of the video recording area on the hard disk and the USB HDD.

Use the [Target Drive] command to specify the drive where the operation is to be performed. Formatting deletes all data on the drive so be sure to enter the correct drive in the [Target Drive] setting.

SET UP section = [System] = [HDD Tools]

Note 1:

Selecting Format deletes all projects and image files on the hard disk. The Format command erases even those clips in projects which have been set for accidental erasure protection using the EDIT section

=[Project] = [Record/Name] = [Protect] command. Also, when executing the Format command, set drive selection to “HDD”(see page

35) (formatting cannot be performed on “DVD1” and “DVD2”).

Note 2:

The internal hard disk drive cannot be formatted when there is a disc in the drive. Remove the disc to format the hard disk drive.

Note 3:

[USB hard disk] appears as [Target Drive] command only when a USB HDD is connected before opening the Function Menu.

Note 4:

When using a USB HDD, connect the hard disk before turning on the unit. A USB HDD equipped with a power switch should be turned on before turning on the unit. Do not connect and disconnect the USB cable when the unit is in operation.
