internal flash RAM or any of the
available storage drives including
CompactFlash™ and USB provided
there is media present.
Programmable record start and stop

stop recording at predetermined
intervals. Data may also be stored
to a remote PC via Ethernet using
the optional Exhibitor Software. In

utilizes many layers of security to
protect the integrity of your stored
data. All data is stored in an
encrypted binary format which
prevents data tampering and
maximizes compression. The front
access media door is lockable to
prevent unauthorized access to the
internal removable storage media.
There are 3 levels of password

has a built-in rechargeable Nickel
Metal Hydride battery backup
system that constantly monitors the
incoming power source. In the event
of a power loss or power dip, the
RD8300 seamlessly switches over
to the internal power and begins a
safe and controlled system
shutdown. When power is restored
the recorder immediately returns to
the last state of operation. This
guarantees that data files will never
be corrupted by unexpected power
conditions.

Make notes, sign files or make other

chart in your own handwriting, or use the
built-in keyboard to type messages on the
screen. Your notes are stored within the
data file directory for future review.
The innate feature of handwriting notes and comments on the
chart of paper recorders had been lost with the onset of video
graphic recorders until the arrival of the RD8300. Using the
high-resolution touch screen interface and the integral stylus
you can once again make notes or comments directly on the
chart. This on-screen annotation is stored within the data file
directory and can be recalled and displayed on the recorder or
in Exhibitor Software.
