SPECIAL ARCHIVING NOTES
Please be aware of the following important information about MasterControl’s
archiving utility:
•
MasterControl provides a log of all archiving procedures. During the
archiving process, a log of current archiving events appears in the Sta-
tus area. All past archiving history is also available by clicking View Log.
To reset the log, click Clear Log. To reset the Status area, click Clear Sta-
tus.
•
All other MasterControl processes, including recording, can continue as
normal during archiving.
•
When archiving to a drive, an archive directory named after the DVX
1000 system is created on that drive. When you format the drive, only
the data in the archive directory is erased.
•
Checkboxes next to a drive are used only for auto archiving—not for
manual archiving or formatting.
•
You can perform manual archiving at any time except during an auto
archiving session.
•
When video is archived, it still remains on the DVX 1000 disk until re-
corded over when MasterControl reaches its disk threshold.
•
You can prevent MasterControl from recording over data that has not
yet been archived by selecting the Don’t Delete Unarchived Data option
on the Disk tab.
•
If a drive is full, you are asked if you want to archive over old data before
any archiving proceeds using that device.
