Notice about construction of the surveillance system using this unit

• This unit can be controlled by the external devices via RS-232C terminal or LAN terminal. This unit can also be used to control external devices via external terminal, RS-422/485 terminal, or RS-232C terminal. Owning to these functions, this unit ﬂ exibly applies to the high grade security system, but the whole surveillance system may be affected by the malfunction of this unit or the external devices depending on the setting contents of this unit, the connection with the external devices, or combination between this unit and the external devices.

• When configuring a surveillance system using this unit, it is recommended to confirm first that this unit operates normally with the other devices connected.

• It is recommended to copy or back up the important recorded contents.

• Damages rising out of any operational error of the surveillance system or loss of the recorded data or any other damages because of any user malfunction of this unit are not covered.

• Do not use the notiﬁ cation function of this unit for making critical judgement nor any purpose related to human lives.

• When this unit cannot recognize the external device which is being used for recording due to the power failure, decreased voltage, or other failures, the recording point may be moved to the internal HDD of this unit or the other external HDD. To prevent occurence of such problem, it is recommended to use uninterruptible power supply.

• If the power plug is disconnected or the breaker switch is turned off during recording, HDD may be damaged or playback of recorded data may become impossible.

If the breaker switch is turned on and off everyday, set the timer recording to be performed only for the period that the

breaker is on and do not turn off the breaker during recording.

• It is recommended to check periodically that recording is perfomed successfully by playing back the recorded data.

There may be cases when the unit's built-in motion detection function does not operate properly due to external condition, video input signal, or other factors.

The user will not be indemniﬁ ed for problems (e.g., recording failure or playback failure) that occur with either the unit or a connected device during operation. It is recommended to back up the important recordings regularly as a precaution against possible breakdowns and accidents.

Recordable time and product warranty

Continuous recordable time and the estimated time displayed on the menu screen indicate the continuous time of recording operation of this unit. They indicate the period neither for product warranty nor that for reliability of used parts.

•

This unit uses a built-in HDD, which is a precision device. Handle this unit with sufﬁ cient care.

•

Do not subject this unit to vibrations or shocks. This may cause trouble specially when the power of the unit is turned

on or when the HDD is being accessed, and sufﬁ cient care is required.

•

Do not disconnect the power plug while the power of the unit is turned on or while recording or playing.

•

For early detection of faults, we recommend that you request inspection once a year.

The HDD and cooling fan of this unit are driving parts. For stable recording, it is recommended that both of these parts are replaced every 30,000 hours. (This interval is for reference purpose only and does not indicate the warranty period of the parts.)

When the detection of the motion or the ground of the

ALARM IN terminal occurs numerously at the same time, not all the start times of the alarm recording may be registered in the alarm list. In this case, the sensor of the lowest number is registered in the list.

In the alarm list, items with the ALARM IN terminal

grounded are indicated in orange, items that were detected with motion are indicated in white, items with the EMERGENCY terminal grounded are indicated in magenta, and items that were input with alarm signal via communication are indicated in green.

When copying the data while “Copy Data” is set to “Alarm,”

the unit performs copy operation, however, the data is not copied if there is no alarm recording data within the speciﬁ ed range of copy. In case of CD/DVD disc, the remaining capacity becomes low because only the management information is recorded. It is recommended to carry out “Calculate” in <Copy Data to Copy 1 Drive> to confirm whether or not there is alarm recording data in the speciﬁ ed range.

step

3. Select

<Copy Data to Copy 1 Drive> and select “Start,” “Start/End,” or “End” and then select “Set.” Input the start/end time or select the bookmark of copy.

Start: Sets only the start point of copy. The data

is copied from the specified start point as much data as possible with the remaining capacity of the media to be copied.

Start/End: Sets the start and end points of copy.

When the amount of data to be copied is larger than the capacity of a single CD/DVD disc, copy all the desired data to multiple CD/DVD discs according to the direction from the recorder. In the case of copying to a USB memory or HDD, only the amount of data equal to the available free space on the copy destination media is copied. It is recommended to check whether all the desired data have been copied properly after the copy is ﬁ nished.

End: Sets only the end point of copy. The data

is copied as much data as possible with the remaining capacity of the media to be copied until the speciﬁ ed end point reaches.

• To set the bookmark point, select “Bookmark”

and then select the desired bookmark number.

• To copy from the oldest recording time, select

“Copy Start Time.” To copy to the latest recording time, select “Copy End Time.”

When using “End,” the copy cannot be executed unless

the calculation of the capacity of data to be copied is completed.

When using “Start” or “Start/End” and executing copy

without calculating the capacity of data to be copied, the progress or the time of the copy may not be displayed correctly because the unit cannot determine the capacity of data to be copied.

In the case of copying to a USB memory or HDD, when

the amount of data to be copied is larger than the available free space on the copy destination media, the estimated copy data volume indicates the remaining capacity of the copy destination media. It is recommended to check whether all the desired data have been copied properly after the copy is ﬁ nished.
