•Disconnect the power cord from the wall AC outlet by grasping the plug, not by pulling the cord.
On installation
•Do not place a heavy object on the unit.
•Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up. Keep the top, sides, and rear of the unit 5 cm (2 inches) or more away from the walls or ceiling. Do not detach the feet of the unit. The space under the unit is necessary. Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation slots.
•Do not use the unit in a closed box.
•Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts.
•Place the unit to avoid direct sunlight.
•Do not install the unit in a place subject to mechanical vibration or shock.
•Do not put magnetic objects close to the unit and cassette tape. Magnetic fields may affect the color reproduction of the unit and cause distortion.
•The unit is designed for operation in a horizontal position. Do not install it in an inclined position.
On cleaning
As a safety precaution, unplug the unit before cleaning it.
•To keep the unit looking brand-new, periodically clean it with a mild detergent solution. Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive cleaners since they will damage the cabinet. When cleaning, keep liquid away from electrical contacts and connectors.
•When there is a buildup of dust on air vents, use a vacuum cleaner to remove it.
On repacking
•Before repacking, disconnect all cables and connecting cords.
•Do not throw away the carton and packing materials. They make an ideal container with which to transport the unit. When shipping the unit to another location, repack it.
On transportation
When transporting the unit, protect it from vibration and impact.
If you have any questions about this unit, contact your authorized Sony dealer.
Backup function
•This unit is equipped with a backup battery (lithium
battery) on the bottom to maintain the clock settings. When the unit is used under normal conditions, the backup battery is recharged. The
battery is fully recharged after a minimum of about 30 hours, and will maintain the clock settings for up to about 30 days.
Note
The settings may not be maintained properly if the backup battery has been recharged for less than 30 hours when the power goes off.

contact your Sony dealer.
Notes on Machines Equipped With a Hard­Disk Drive
This unit is equipped with a Hard-Disk Drive (HDD), which is a precision device. Shock, vibration, static electricity, or extraordinary temperature or humidity may cause trouble with HDDs or loss of data stored on a hard disk. Be sure to pay careful attention when installing, operating and setting up this unit.
Notes on temperature and humidity
The operating and storage temperature and humidity must be maintained within the specified ranges.
Operating temperature: 5°C to 40°C (41°F to 104°F) Operating humidity: 20% to 80% (maximum wet-
bulb temperature 29°C or 84°F) (no condensation)
Storage temperature: –20°C to +60°C (–4°F to
+140°F)
Storage humidity: 20% to 80% (maximum wet-bulb
temperature 29°C or 84°F) (no condensation)
Do NOT impart any mechanical shock or vibration.
This may damage the HDD or cause loss of data.
•When transporting the unit, be sure to pack it with the specified packing materials. If carrying the unit on a cart, use a cart with low vibration. If excessive mechanical shock or vibration is imparted, the HDD may be damaged.
•NEVER move this unit in power-on state. Mount/ remove the unit onto/from a rack in power-off state.
• Do not impart shock to any other machine in the rack that is equipped with an HDD.
• Be sure to turn off the power of every other machine in the rack that is equipped with an HDD before mounting/removing the unit onto/from a rack.
•Do not place the unit near equipment that causes vibration.
•Do not remove the cabinet of the unit.
•When placing the unit on a floor or stand, be sure to gently set the unit down with the four specified feet attached to the bottom. If there are no feet on the bottom, attach them before setting the unit down.
Never operate the unit within 30 seconds after the power is turned off.
The disk in an HDD rotates by inertia for a while after the power is turned off. In this condition, the heads are in an unstable state. During this period, the HDD is more sensitive to mechanical shock and vibration than during power-on state. Refrain from imparting even
a slight shock for at least 30 seconds after the power is turned off. Operations may be initiated after
30 seconds or more (as the disk stops).
In the event of trouble with the HDD
If there is something wrong with the HDD of this unit (a failure occurs in the HDD), handle this unit following the cautions given above. This protects the HDD and your data from further damage until the contents of the failure can be confirmed or analyzed.
Set the built-in clock before use.
Recording cannot be made if the date and time have not set with the built-in clock.
If no setting has been made for the built-in clock, a warning message will be displayed on the monitor screen when the power is supplied to the unit. First adjust the built-in clock.
Replacement
The HDD, cooling fans and built-in lithium battery are expendable parts. Replace them with new ones once in every two or three years of usage under normal ambient temperature. Note that the timing of replacement depends on various conditions. For replacement, consult your authorized Sony dealer.
On recording
Note that the contents of the recording cannot be compensated for under any and all conditions, including conditions that may arise due to a malfunction of this unit.

Overview of Recording

Types of Recording

The HSR-X206/X206P records video and audio (1 channel) in normal recording, alarm recording, or timer recording.
Normal recording
Initiated by pressing the z REC button, video and audio are recorded in the normal recording area of the built-in hard disk.
Alarm recording
Initiated by a trigger, such as an external signal or the internal sensor, video and audio are recorded in the alarm recording area of the built-in hard disk. It is also possible to record tracing the specified time back from a trigger (Pre-alarm recording).
Timer recording
Recording is made during the specified period(s). Video and audio are recorded in the normal recording area of the built-in hard disk.
Data recorded by normal recording, alarm recording, or timer recording can be stored in the archive area assigned independently from the normal and alarm recording areas with a copy operation.
For details on operations, see “Data Storage” on page 40.
Note
Though it is rare case, but it includes the possibility of image loss.

Areas for Recording

The built-in hard disk is partitioned into the normal recording area, alarm recording area, and archive area for data storage. The default is 80% assigned to the normal recording area and 19% assigned to the alarm recording area with the remaining 1% assigned to the archive area. You may change these percentages using
2. RECORDING AREA SET of the main menu
2. RECORD SET. For the normal recording area and alarm recording area, the submenu 3. RECORDING CONDITIONS SET of the main menu 2. RECORD SET permits you to choose whether to stop recording or overwrite when each area becomes full. The data in each area can be erased with a reset operation.
For details, see “Recording Area Settings” on page 60.

Supplementary information regarding the recording time
The recording times listed in the tables on page 31 and show the values with the following conditions:
•The hard disk capacity of this recorder is 320 GB: If you change the capacity, the recording times will also change. If you double the capacity, the recording times will also become doubled, and with the capacity increased fourfold, the recording times will also increase fourfold.
•Of the capacity of the disk, 1% is used as the archive area and the remaining 99% is used as normal recording area.
•If multiple cameras are connected, they will share the recording areas. For example, when you set the recording rate to 1 FPS with 6 camera inputs, one input is recorded at 0.167 FPS (each 6 seconds).
When 2 cameras are ON (max. 37.5 FPS)
01: 25 02: 12.5 03: OFF 04: OFF 05: OFF 06: OFF
(Camera to be ON can be selected at will.)
Note
The size of a picture file may vary, as pictures are recorded with JPEG compression. The recording times, therefore, may not always match the values shown in the tables.
