Check disk storage space
Pearl has a finite amount of storage This storage space holds a lot of recordings, but it can get full. It’s a good
idea to monitor your current disk usage.
If available storage is low, consider removing some unneeded recordings or setting up an automatic file
transfer with deletion after transfer. See
Recorded files and File and recording transfer .
Disk space can also be checked via the tablet interface. See Verify disk space via the tablet
interface.
To check disk storage space:
1. Connect to the admin interface using your preferred connection mechanism. See Connect to the admin
interface .
2. Login as admin or operator.
3. Check the Internal Storage section at the bottom of the menu column. The bar will be mostly green if
there is lots of space left, or mostly red if storage space is nearly full.
4. If available storage is low, take action to remove files as discussed in Recorded files and File and
recording transfer .
