3.2.3. Countermeasures after abnormal shutdown
DVRSHD series have been designed to operate for long period without a problem.
13
The operation of the system can be locked up however, when major parts (such as hard disk) function abnormally due to external
electric shock, physical damage, or other various reasons.
The system stops operating during abnormal situations, and the internal watchdog circuit is activated in order to reset the system for
rebooting within 2 minutes. The system will then recover normally. It will also automatically reboot even when there is power failure.
However, if major parts (such as hard disk) are physically damaged, it is impossible to recover normally. This will cause continuous
rebooting by watchdog or deadlock without reset.
Countermeasures for abnormal discontinuation are as follows.
1. In case the power cannot be turned off, turn off by pulling the power cord.
2. Wait for about 10 seconds and reconnect the power. Ensure the system is functioning properly.
3. Consult your dealer if system is not functioning properly after reconnecting power.

5.1 System - General
Set general user environment of the system.
Use the button of the Front Panel or Remote Controller to select the category and press [Enter] button. Then, detail menu
of each category will appear.
5.1.1. Resolution
Select resolution for the recording image. Here, the resolution means required horizontal and vertical pixel number of a
page. The resolution is indicated as (horizontal) X (vertical) pixel number. Thus, select one setting from 352×240, 720×
240, and 720×480. Default is 352×240. As the resolution number increases, the picture quality is higher. In fact, 352×240
is VHS level and when high quality camera is used, 720×480 show DVD level picture quality. When the picture quality
gets higher, the storage capacity is bigger and the recording period will be shorter. Thus, selecting appropriate resolution
according to the important of the situation.
23
Note
The storage capacity for the same image will differ. That is, image per byte is ratio to the image dimensions
(horizontal x vertical) thus 720×240 is twice the size of 352×240 and 720×480 takes about 4 times the storage
capacity.
Therefore when high resolution is selected for the same period, the storage capacity taken up will be larger and
the storage period will be shorter on the same Hard disk capacity.
Note
For the same resolution, frame per byte size will vary according to various reasons such as recording picture
quality setting, movement, complexity of the image and noise. Therefore, total recording period will differ hugely
according to the image particularity.
352×240 : Standard Quality Standard 3~5KB
720×240 : Standard Quality Standard 5~10KB
720×480 : Standard Quality Standard 10~20KB
