This Recorder has a built in hard disk (abbreviated

as HDD ) for recording and playback. Beware of

the following points when setting up and using the

Recorder. Failure to observe precautions may cause

damage to the HDD itself or its content, failure of the

disk to operate, or recording of noise.

• Do not subject the Recorder to any vibration or

impact.

• Do not place the Recorder in a cramped location

which might block the ventilation port on the back of

the Recorder.

• Do not place the Recorder in a location with severe

temperature variation.

• If the Recorder is set up in a location with severe

temperature variation, dew may form on and inside

the Recorder. If the Recorder is used with internal

dew formation present, this may cause HDD damage

or malfunction. We recommend keeping variation in

room temperature within 10˚C per hour.

• Do not place the Recorder in a location with high

humidity.

• Place the Recorder horizontally, never at an

incline.

• Do not place a magnetic device (magnet etc.) close

to the recorder.

• When the power is on, do not unplug the power

cord from the AC outlet, turn off the breaker for the

area where the Recorder is set up, or move the

Recorder.

When moving the Recorder, rst turn off the power and

then unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.

Recording Format

• HDD recording is done using the variable bit rate

format (VBR) for more efficient recording. The

following phenomena may occur.

With the variable bit rate format, the remaining amount

which can be recorded may increase or decrease

relative to the display of the remaining amount of

HDD space.

• When the display indicates that the remaining

amount of HDD space is low, rst delete unnecessary

programmes, and then record with an extra margin

in the amount of remaining space. There is an option

in the conguration menu to discard the recordings.

You can choose between three options:

Deleting,

1 – Oldest recordings

2 – Largest recordings

3 – Smallest recordings
