INSTALLATION ( continued )
2.2 Hard-disk Drive Installation
The DVR is equipped with two compartments
of hard disk drive (for removable model
only). The unit usually comes with one
hard-disk drive installed in the compartment
of HD1, which is default- configured as a
master. If you need a second hard-disk drive
to be installed in the compartment of HD2
(Mobile), please contact your distributors or
installers for specific instructions on how to
install it. Please don’t serve yourself before
consulting your installers. If there is only one
hard-disk drive in the mobile compartment,
please set the HD2 USAGE option to REC
(please refer to section 4.5) before
proceeding with the recording function. The
jumper-setting arrangement of installed
hard-disk drives for the system (Table 3.2 A.)
is shown in the tables below.
Note: The CD-RW model is equipped with a
fixed hard- disk and a CD-RW drive. The unit
usually comes with one hard-disk drive
installed in the compartment of HD1, which is
default-configured as a master.

~ 5 all over again.)
6. Verify the version of the system software. (Please
refer to the section 4.6 VERSION option.)
!
Caution:
1. Before carrying out the updating procedures, please
ensure the SD card is working and the file of the
system software is intact.
2. Don’t interrupt the process while the unit is updating

3. OPERATIONS
80GB hard-disk drive will be filled in 41 hours
This section shows you how to operate and
manage the DVR when it gets in the way.
3.1 Configuring Recording
Settings
Recording time will vary depending on the image
size, recording rate, and the capacity of the
hard-disk drives. Generally, the DVR comes with
a built-in hard-disk drive for continuous recording
from one to four weeks under most recording
conditions. The table below shows the possible
recording times based on a 20GB hard-disk drive
at certain refresh rates and the corresponding
image quality. With one or more hard-disk drives
in operation, please calculate the recording time
using the table below in accordance with your
(see the gray area in the table). If the total
capacity of 240GB hard-disk drives is in use
under the same refresh rate and picture quality, it
will be filled in 123 hours (3 times the rate of a
80GB hard-disk drive).
NOTE:
1. Recording times on the tables below are
estimated. For the actual available recording
time of a recording configuration, refer to the
system information of the DVR. (Please refer to
section 2.3 system information for more
details.)
2. There is no audio function at the refresh rate
in NTSC: 1.2 fields/sec ~ 1 fields/ 16 sec. There
is no audio function at the refresh rate in PAL:
requirements. For an NTSC unit, for example, if
the unit is set to record images with the BEST
quality at a 30 Frame/Sec record rate, normally a
