☞ Backup recording
If there is 20 minutes or more of available recording
time remaining in the post-alarm recording area of
the hard disk after post-alarm (POST1) recording is
completed, pre-alarm 2 (PRE2) recording [which is
distinct from pre-alarm (PRE1) recording] starts
automatically. If the hold-up (H) switch is then
pressed, post-alarm 2 (POST2) recording [which is
distinct from post-alarm (POST1) recording] starts.
The recording time for backup recording is set
automatically according to the ratio between the
pre-alarm 2 (PRE2) and the post-alarm 2 (POST2)
recording times.
Note:
If any of the following occur, “ALARM REC FULL”
will be displayed on the screen and recording in the
alarm recording area will no longer be possible.
At such times, transfer the image data to a
computer and clear the images from the alarm
recording area, or re-initialize the hard disk.
• If the pre-alarm and post-alarm recording areas
become full
• When post-alarm 2 (POST2) recording is
complete, because this is the final recording
area used
• If the available recording time for alarm
recording is reduced to 20 minutes or less.
Suspicion recording
This recording method is used at times such as
when a suspicious individual is noticed. A switch
must be connected to the S (SUSPICION) terminal
at the rear of the camera for suspicion recording to
be carried out. If the switch which is connected to
the S terminal is pressed during pre-alarm
recording, the recording mode changes from
pre-alarm recording to suspicion recording. The
images are recorded in the suspicion recording area
of the hard disk. The number of images that can be
recorded is set automatically to between 11,565
and 502 images, depending on the alarm recording
time setting.
