HDD Management
If you start up the DVR for the first time, you need to format the HDD. Only then the DVR can record the footages on it.
To format the HDD, check the Select checkbox and click Format HDD. A warning message opens where you are asked
to confirm your selection. Click OK.
Wait for the Format finished! notification message to appear on the screen. Click OK.
NOTE:
Next time you startup the DVR, the recording from the cameras is performed automatically, or based on a
defined schedule, and you do not need to reformat the HDD again, unless there is a problem with the hard disk.
Overwrite: Use this option to overwrite the old recordings on the HDD when the HDD is full. For example, if you
choose the option 7 days then only the last 7 days recordings are kept on the HDD. To prevent overwriting any old
recordings, select Disable.
