Read-only: The HDD is write-protected. Re-
cordings are made on the next HDD.
Warning:
If only one HDD is installed and this is set to
“Read-only”, then the device cannot make re-
cordings.
Redundancy:
At least two HDDs are installed.
The redundant HDD makes an extra copy of the
recordings. This is used as a data backup.

At least one HDD must have the R/W status
(Read/Write). Otherwise, no recordings are possible.

The status of each HDD can be checked in the “Mainte-
nance” menu. S.M.A.R.T. information (Self-Monitoring,
Analysis and Reporting Technology) is stored in the log
data.

Call up the log file and search according to the infor-
mation/S.M.A.R.T. HDD (see page 42).
Setting up the HDD alarm
You can specify alarms to inform you of HDD errors.

To do this, call up “Exception” in the “System Set-
tings” menu (see page 39).
